The Community for Data Integration (CDI) Risk Map Project is developing modular tools and services to benefit a wide group of scientists and managers that deal with various aspects of risk research and planning. Risk is the potential that exposure to a hazard will lead to a negative consequence to an asset such as human or natural resources. This project builds upon a Department of the Interior project that is developing geospatial layers and other analytical results that visualize multi-hazard exposure to various DOI assets. The CDI Risk Map team has developed the following: a spatial database of hazards and assets, an API (application programming interface) to query the data, web services with Geoserver (an open-source geospatial server), and a modular map viewer and related infographics using the open source visualization framework TerriaJS.
Principal Investigator : Nathan J Wood
Co-Investigator : Jeanne M Jones, Kevin D Henry, Jason T Sherba, Peter Ng
