3 M a p T y p e s Three types of map are provided by the EMS Risk & Recovery Mapping Service: Reference maps provide a comprehensive and updated knowledge of the territory and relevant assets in a disaster risk reduction context Pre-disaster situation maps provide thematic information supporting planning for contingencies on vulnerable areas. Examples include hazard exposure, vulnerability, resilience, risk status, evacuation plans and modelling scenarios Post-disaster situation maps provide thematic information in support of post-disaster activities such as reconstruction planning and progress monitoring. Examples include post-disaster needs assessment, recovery plans, reconstruction/rehabilitation monitoring, including Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) and refugee camps monitoring 3

7 R R M : T h e S e r v i c e s i n c e 2012 The Risk and Recovery Mapping service has been activated 33 times since the beginning of the service Member states triggering, since 2012 are: Greece, Portugal, Germany. Many activation were triggered by DG JRC, DG ECHO or associated users A call for Expression of Interest was launched on March 2017 (closed on 30 April), addressing global stakeholders in the field of disaster management and civil protection and members of NGO s working in the humanitarian field, resulting in an significant increase in activation number

8 H o w t o a c c e s s t h e R R M S e r v i c e The Service can be directly activated by nominated Authorised Users (AU) Entities which are not Authorised Users and who wish to activate the Mapping service must contact their National Focal Point or contact the ERCC All Commission Services and the European External Action s Situation room are Authorized Users The AU must fill the Services Request Form (SRF) and send by e- mail to the ERCC More information on the Mapping service at Contact ERCC at echo-ercc@ec.europa.eu if you want to activate the EMS mapping 8

9 T i m e l i n e s s After receipt of Technical Annex the Service Providers (SP) have the following deadlines: 7 working days for questions 10 working days for sending an offer JRC: evaluation(3days), preparation of contract (5days) SP: 20working days from contract signature 7 d questions 10 d proposal preparation 3 d JRC evaluation 5 d contract preparation 20 d map compilation 9

Nepal Forest fires Erosion risk maps, land slide risk maps, bio-mass losses Humanitarian aid Population density estimates and land use database Environmental degradation around refugee camps This map of Rio Mamore, Bolivia, highlight the existing and proposed measures for flood defense and was delivered as part of a series of maps dealing with pre-disaster preparedness and vulnerability analysis in the region 11

12 E M S N : B a s i c E u r o p e a n A s s e t s M a p This RRM activation has been requested by the BBK (Bundesamt fuer Bevoelkerungsschutz und Katastrophenhilfe), Federal Office of Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance The target of the activation is to generate a detailed asset-map for Germany, expressing values in EURO/m2. Assets have been shown not only as cumulative layer of different types of assets (e.g. private households, industry, commerce, vehicles, agriculture, etc.), but as accessible single contributing layers as well, each of them expressing its value in EURO/m2 Intended use of the maps is to contribute to the national risk assessment in Germany. It is a highly appreciated product as input for multi-risk and vulnerability maps The geographic extent covers the national territory of Germany

13 E M S N : B a s i c E u r o p e a n A s s e t s M a p Legend BEAM Basic European Assets Map has been provided over the whole territory of Germany

14 E M S N : E a r t h q u a k e r i s k a s s e s s m e n t A u s t r i a P l a n n i n g a n d R e c o v e r y Austria is situated in a region of low to moderate seismic hazard, reported as 10% probability of ground motion exceeding g PGA (Peak ground acceleration) in 50 years ( ). Despite this moderate hazard levels the current estimation of seismic risk is high The service implementation, refers to the analysis of the potential impact of earthquake activity including a number of secondary hazards, namely: Landslide prone areas in built up areas Flood Risk originating from upstream blocked rivers Industrial Accidents

15 E M S N : E X P O S U R E ( P o p u l a t i o n ) Legend Population exposure is realized in grid format of 500m, calculating the population density per grid cell Seismic hazard and population exposure mapping depicts the population density in grid format categorized in five different classes (Very Low, Low, Medium, High, and Very High) 15

16 E M S N : V u l n e r a b i l i t y Estimation of buildings' vulnerability Assessment of the seismic vulnerability of electrical, gas and oil utilities network Legend The vulnerabilities have been classified in five different categories (very low, low, medium, high, very high) 16

17 E M S N : B u l g a r i a : P o s t - d i s a s t e r a n a l y s i s The objective of the activation is to provide Post Disaster assessment of the key dynamics of the 2014 flood in the area and the resulted damages (sectorial), to elaborate Risk Assessment products and to propose Mitigation Measures The area analyzed is the Mizia town (Vratsa region), falling in the Skat River Basin, where significant surface run off occurred in 2014 as a consequence of heavy precipitations registered from 31 July to 2 August 2014 (70 up to 220 mm. almost as much as 50%of the average annual precipitation within the Danube plain) GLIDE NUMBER: F L B G R

18 E M S N : P o p u l a t i o n at R i s k - V r a t s a Standard (aggregation) GIS techniques were applied at the census data layer, to produce information on population at district, community & block levels Assets at risk identified focussing on population and infrastructures 18
