Why disaster loss and damage databases?
• Losses and damages from disasters are not systemically recorded
• Poor understanding of emerging patterns and trends of disaster risks resulting in lack of targeted action
• Climate change and variability posing threats to development
• Intensities and frequencies of disasters changing

Disaster loss and damage database?
• Collection of data about occurrence and impacts of disasters
• Data capture over a period of time and geographical unit
• Storage, retrieval and compilation of data and information
• Sharing of data and information to all stakeholders in real time
• Analysis of data over a period of time and space to understand patterns and trends of risks

Types of data captured by the databases
• Data captured at high resolution – sub-district level
• Information about occurrences and impacts are captured over a long period of time (20-30 years)
• Direct impacts are captured (event, population, sectors)

Types of data captured by the databases (2)
• Direct impacts of an event• Event details (date, location, intensity)
• Population affected (death, injured, affected, …)
• Damages and losses to sectors (houses, road, health, etc.)
• Analysis undertaken at provincial, district and sub-district levels to derive emerging trends and patterns of events and impacts to feed into national and sub-national planning

Types of data captured by the databases (3)
• Pre-configured list of disaster events, definitions of events and impacts
• About 250 additional configurable data fields available for adding more indicators
• Pre-defined set of analysis to create various maps, charts, tables, reports, statistical for different administrative levels (districts, …)

Global
• Out of 50 national disaster loss and damage databases globally, UNDP has supported the development of 25 databases and more are under development
• Of 57 regional, country and sub-national loss and damage databases, 45 use a common format
• Globally, most databases hosted by governments

Disaster databases in Asia
• In Asia, UNDP started supporting pilot implementation in 2002 in the Orissa state of India- Sri Lanka- Nepal- Iran- Indonesia (more than 10 provinces)- India (Orissa, Tamil Nadu and other States)- Lao PDR- Timor-Leste- Cambodia
• Several ongoing databases - Vietnam, Myanmar, Maldives, Thailand and Bhutan
• Database highly configurable to country specific needs

Guiding principles for disaster loss databases
• Developing national capacities
• Establishing and sustaining nationally led processes to create ownership and relevance
• Establishment of database is guided by institutional and legal context
• The database should address the needs and priorities of the country
• Sharing of database and analysis with all stakeholders
