Reseña del libro "Land-Use Portfolio Modeler, Version 1.0? Software Documentation and Tutorial (en Inglés)"

Natural hazards pose significant threats to the public safety and economic health of many communities through- out the world. Community leaders and decision-makers continually face the challenges of planning and allocating limited resources to invest in protecting their communities against catastrophic losses from natural-hazard events. Public efforts to assess community vulnerability and encourage loss-reduction measures through mitigation often focused on either aggregating site-specific estimates or adopting stan- dards based upon broad assumptions about regional risks. The site-specific method usually provided the most accurate estimates, but was prohibitively expensive, whereas regional risk assessments were often too general to be of practical use. Policy makers lacked a systematic and quantitative method for conducting a regional-scale risk assessment of natural hazards. In response, Bernknopf and others (2001) developed the portfolio model, an intermediate-scale approach to assess- ing natural-hazard risks and mitigation policy alternatives.
