Geomatics, Natural Hazards and Risk is an open access journal publishing research on geospatial (GIS and GPS) and remote sensing techniques applied to risk management of natural hazards.
The aim of Geomatics, Natural Hazards and Risk is to address new concepts and approaches using geospatial and remote sensing techniques to study monitoring, mapping, risk mitigation, risk vulnerability and early warning of natural hazards. Regional case studies must clearly demonstrate a broader implication for an international audience.
Geomatics, Natural Hazards and Risk covers the following topics:
- Remote sensing techniques
- Natural hazards associated with land, ocean, atmosphere, land-ocean-atmosphere coupling and climate change
- Emerging problems related to multi-hazard risk assessment, multi-vulnerability risk assessment, risk quantification and the economic aspects of hazards.
- Results of findings on major natural hazards
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
