HAZUS: Battling Hazards with a Brand New Tool
Which buildings, roads, and bridges may be damaged and how great would the damage be? Which roads may be shut down? Which areas may be affected if utilities go down? Which businesses will close?
Without answers to these questions, communities are hampered in their efforts to plan responsibly for future development, safe and effective evacuation routes, and appropriate emergency shelter locations-and to take steps that will make their communities safer places to live and work.
This article answers complex questions about how HAZUS-MH can help communities in planning and preparing for, responding to, and recovering from hazard events.
