HAZUS User Groups Success Story: HIHUG, Hawaii HAZUS Atlas

To help Hawaii's disaster managers better prepare for and respond to potentially devastating earthquakes, the Pacific Disaster Center (PDC) in collaboration with Hawaii State Civil Defense and the Hawaii State Earthquake Advisory Committee (HSEAC) has created the Hawaii HAZUS Atlas (HHA). the HHA is a web-based catalog of 20 "plausible" hypothetical earthquakes based on historical events located in (and around) Maui and Hawaii Counties. The HHA contains loss estimation data and analyses based on HAZUS scenarios. With HHA, communities can use HAZUS results to assist in disaster planning before, during, and after a destructive earthquake.
