What is PacSAFE?
Impact mapping tool
Overlays hazard
footprint and
exposure layer
Calculates numbers
of buildings, people
in hazard zones

Exposure layers that can be used
Buildings
People
Roads
Land cover

Developing capacity for disaster resilience• Updates to PacSAFE software –
impact functions for priority
hazards
• Training and deployment of
PacSAFE within NDMOs
• Hazard modelling training with
SPC
• Working in parallel with Pacific
Resilience Program to enable
SPC and PICs to integrate
PacSAFE into disaster
management operations

management plans
• Representatives from NGOs working in disaster
risk reduction

What scenarios did we consider?Tsunami
Mw 8.7 earthquake on the Tonga
Trench
Tropical cyclone
Category 4 cyclone passing over
Tongatapu
![Page 9: Enhancing disaster response planning with impact mapping tools · 2017. 12. 6. · Training workshop 1 –Introduction to PacSAFE Objectives: • Understand PacSAFE concepts • Prepare](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071422/611c27a39dcf0f49710f2def/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Example outputs:
Structures affected by
tsunami
Simple zones indicating
hazard level (high,
medium, low)
Building points coloured
by hazard zone
Indicative number of
buildings in each zone

Example outputs:
Population affected by
tsunami
Simple zones indicating
hazard level (high,
medium, low)
Indicative number of
people in each zone

Impact reportsGeneral report
• Number of people affected
Minimum needs
• Requirements for relief items
Action checklist:
• Prompt for questions to be asked
by disaster managers
Breakdown by demographics
• Gender, age, etc.
Aggregated by village

Minimum needs report

Impacts of a major cyclone

Lessons from the first workshopThings that went well:
• Identified more barriers to using
the tool
• Packaged data works well
• Fundamental introduction to QGIS
• Bringing different groups together
across government
• Identified issues/improvements for
PacSAFE
Things that we can do better:
• Run more intro presentations at the
start (e.g. benefits of open data)
• Robust testing of the software prior
to workshop
• Make hard copies of documentation
• Can we make local language
versions of the user guide?
• Identify key buildings separately
• Only consider worst case scenario
(tsunami)

Next steps
Develop PacSAFE champions, to encourage use across government
Specific functionality enhancements – adding TC impacts on land cover,
population
Build regional capacity for hazard modelling to develop scenarios
Deployment in other countries – current engagement with Fiji
Standardisation of asset data, to enable use across risk tools
