  2. Munich Re NatCatSERVICE – One of the world‘s most comprehensive databases on natural catastrophes • From 1980 until today all loss events • For USA and selected countries in Europe all loss events since 1970 • Retrospectively all Great Natural Catastrophes since 1950 • In addition all major historical events starting from 79 AD – eruption of Mt.Vesuvio (3,000 historical data sets) • Currently more than 26,000 events documented Natural catastrophes 2008 Earthquake, tsunami,volcanic eruption Storm Flood Extreme temperature (heat wave, forest fires) Great natural catastrophes: Earthquake China Hurricane Ike Cyclone Nargis Winter damage China © 2009 Münchener Rückversicherungs-Gesellschaft, Geo Risks Research, NatCatSERVICE.

  21. Globeof Natural Hazards 2009 – Products DVD – Globe of Natural Hazards

  22. Globeof Natural Hazards 2009 Whatisnew? Knowledge in a state of flux All global hazard maps have been updated

  23. Globeof Natural Hazards 2009 Whatisnew? Topics like flood and climate change are fully integrated New hazards

  24. Globeof Natural Hazards 2009 Whatisnew? Power function supplies quick information on situation regarding natural hazards and climate change for any location on earth Hazard pointer

  25. Globeof Natural Hazards 2009 Whatisnew? Knowledge can be displayed with a satellite image in the background View from space

  26. Globeof Natural Hazards 2009 Whatisnew? Networked knowledge Complex topics like risk management of natural hazards and climate change are linked in a sophisticated manner

  27. Global Earthquake Model (GEM)Features An internationally sanctioned program initiated by the OECD, aiming to build an independent, open standard to calculate and communicate earthquake risk around the world Dynamic: an (updatable) model, not a map Global: covers also less developed/monitored areas according to uniform standards Open Access: a (transparent) tool to use for everybody Public Private Partnership: combining the strenghts of both sectors

  28. Leading Scientific Institutes Zurich Industry International Scientific Organisations GEM: A Public-Private Partnership Intergovernmental and Governmental EU

  29. GEM goals GEM is not an academic exercise. The goal is to convert “knowledge into action”. => Assess and monitor risk globally, especially in less well served regions => Raise risk awareness => Stimulate risk mitigation => Save lives, reduce losses and distribute the financial burden To achieve GEM’s goals we need “local champions”
