Abstract
The present paper introduces a new risk-informed based tool that can support disaster management authorities in making decisions in response to earthquakes at local and regional scales by using estimated physical and socio-economic losses. The risk-informed based tool is building upon existing risk assessment methods, and multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology. The integrated risk assessment methods are adapted from the earthquake loss estimation tool SELENA. The integrated MCDM methodology, allowing selection of optimal mitigation measures by taking into account the priorities and preferences of disaster management authorities, was developed within the EU Horizon 2020 TURNkey project [1]. The new tool presented in this study also allows easy integration and incorporation of existing database and models that can be openly available. The tool is characterized with user-friendly interface and flexible format of the input and output data, that can be easily understood by different actors in disaster risk management.
