How can we plan to minimize damage and loss of life to prevent natural hazards from becoming natural
disasters?
HAZUS – a planning applicationHAZUS – a planning application
HAZUS-MH: FEMA’S SOFTWARE PROGRAM FOR ESTIMATING POTENTIAL LOSSES FROM DISASTERS
It is a planning tool, NOT an engineering tool Engineering-level data (i.e. Hydrology & Hydraulic studies for Flood
modeling) can be input to increase accuracy, but results still produce planning-level estimations
It estimates physical damage & economic losses
It assesses population needs related to emergency management
It allows users to compare results from different study case scenarios, including those that result from specific mitigation actions (useful for benefits analysis)
HAZUS-MH is a planning tool that estimates damage and losses from natural hazards
What Is HAZUS-MHWhat Is HAZUS-MH
HAZUS-MH: FEMA’S SOFTWARE PROGRAM FOR ESTIMATING POTENTIAL LOSSES FROM DISASTERS
Software: Custom GIS (geographic information system) Runs on ESRI products; ArcGIS and Spatial Analyst
• ESRI products must be acquired separately Spatial Analyst required for Flood Model only
• HAZUS-MH is free from FEMA
Current HAZUS-MH version (MR3) runs on ArcGIS 9.2
Previous HAZUS-MH version (MR2) runs on ArcGIS 9.1
Data: National data sets Inventory of assets (buildings, infrastructure, population/demographics, etc.)
• Users may modify data sets or model factors
• Users may add their own data
Technical ComponentsTechnical Components

Results can be viewed & mapped many different ways• Including running mitigation scenarios to compare results
Inventory includes many different classifications of general building stock (by occupancy, by building type), essential facilities (several types), transportation systems (several types), demographics and more…
Local data and more sophisticated HAZUS techniques enhance the analysis

State Mitigation PlanState Mitigation Plan
The Florida Hazard Mitigation Plan provides a framework for linking pre- and post-disaster mitigation planning and measures with public and private interests to ensure an integrated, comprehensive approach to disaster loss reduction.
HAZUS used extensively for review and analysis of hazards and risks.

Florida Catastrophic Planning ProjectFlorida Catastrophic Planning Project
The Florida Catastrophic Planning Project considers two catastrophic events: a breach of the Herbert Hoover Dike around the waters of Lake Okeechobee and a Category 5 hurricane making landfall in South Florida, which has a population of nearly seven million.

Additional use of HAZUS Building Stock DataAdditional use of HAZUS Building Stock Data
Debris calculations were performed using the Dewberry Disaster Assistance Response and Recovery Technology (DARRT) for Lee and Palm Beach Counties and a modified United States Army Corps of Engineers debris model for all others.
Except where the DARRT model was used, all building stock data on which estimates are based is from the HAZUS regional database.

Why use SLOSH?Why use SLOSH?
Use the existing partnership with NOAA…FEMA doesn’t have surge modeling expertise
SLOSH is simplified and independently valid to within 20% of observed surge heights
Using SLOSH MOMs, the US is covered! FEMA already pays for SLOSH basin updates,
why pay for separate model development? Thousands of hurricane scenarios already
run, just need to do damage estimates
