Abstract

In this study, we identified heavy rain damage and rainfall characteristics for each region, and proposed Hazard-Triggering rainfall according to heavy rain damage scale focused on Gyeonggi-do. We classified the damage scale into three groups (total damage, over 100 million won, over 1 billion won) to identify the characteristics of heavy rain damage, and we determined criteria of the rainfall class for each rainfall variable (maximum rainfalls for the durations of 1, 3, 6, 12 hours) to identify the rainfall characteristics. We calculated the cumulative probability of heavy rain damage based on the rain criteria mentioned above to establish the Hazard-Triggering rainfall according to the heavy rainfall damage scale. Using the results, we establish the Hazard-Triggering rainfall for each rain variable according to heavy rain damage. Finally, this study calculated the assessment indicator (F1-Score) for classification performance to test the performance of the Hazard-Triggering rainfall. As the results, the classification performance of the Hazard-Triggering rainfall which proposed in this study was 11%, 30%, 10% higher than the criteria by KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration).
