Hazus-MH 4.0Tsunami Model IntegrationHigh Level Design Overview

9

Development of new Tsunami Model

• An easy to use graphical interface within Hazus to access and use

tsunami hazard data from external providers, including NOAA, providing

access to and integration of the authoritative hazard data layers

necessary for analysis.

Incorporating the Hazus Tsunami Methodology (FEMA, 2013)

10

Hazus-HM 4.0 – March 2017

Release Contents

Operate on Arc GIS 10.4

Hazus will continue to be 32-bit Windows desktop application.

Require 64 Bit System, Windows 7.0, 8.0 or 10.0 Operating Systems

Testing : December 2016 / January 2017

o Please contact Cynthia McCoy if interested.

o Cynthia.mccoy@fema.dhs.gov

11

Primary areas of Risk

• 72 Counties in the 5 Very High Risk States

(AK, CA, HI, OR and WA)

• 5 High tsunami risk Territories

(Guam, American Samoa, Commonwealth of Northern

Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands)

• As determined by the National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation

Program (NTHMP)

13

Tsunami Hazard input data

• Hazard Type Near Source Tsunami - Combined tsunami & earthquake impacts

Distant Tsunami - Tsunami impacts only

Required for Analysis

• Maximum Inundation Depth (ft)

• Maximum Momentum Flux (ft3/sec2)

Input Layers

• Runup elevation limit

• Max Inundation depth throughout zone

• Max Inundation elevation throughout zone

• Max Velocity throughout zone

• Max Momentum Flux throughout zone

• Topography (DEM)

• Deformed Topography (DEM)

• Structure Occupancy (Residential, Commercial, Industrial, etc.)

14

3 Levels of Analytical precision & Complexity

• Level 1: Runup Only (velocity based on equation)

Data consist of a runup grid file with heights relative to Mean Sea-Level (MSL)

• Level 2: Runup (AGL) and Velocity

Data consist of a runup grid file with depths relative to Above Ground Level

(AGL) and are based on deformed topography in the case of near source

earthquakes.

• Level 3: Numerical Modeling (H an HV2)

Depth (H) and Momentum Flux (HV2) are already formatted in ArcGIS Grid.

Depth (feet Above Ground Level (AGL) are based on deformed topography in

the case of near source earthquakes and Momentum Flux (ft3/sec2) are

calculated and in correct units.

17

Inventory – Structural Specific & Aggregated

• Attributes to calculate building loss User Defined Facility ID

Occupancy – Land Use

Reconstruction Cost

Contents Cost

EQ Construction Type

Seismic Building Code Design Levels

First Floor height

Coordinate location

• Leverage USACE National

Structure Inventory (NSI) for aggregated analysis

(US States) Randomly distributed point level data based on dasymetric

Census Blocks

(US Territories) Randomly distributed based on 1KM Grid

Includes day and night occupancy + household dynamics

Calculating Building Damage State

1. Earthquake seismic building construction type - Manufactured Housing, Wood Frame,

Unreinforced Masonry, etc.

2. Design Level - (Pre-Code, Moderate Code, High Code and Special Code)

3. Height of inundation (relative to inside of structure (Wave height - FFE)

• 15% Loss Ratio – Moderate

• 50% Loss Ratio – Extensive

• 85% Loss Ratio – Complete

20

Economic Loss Estimation Functions

Structural DamageCSds,i = Cost of structural damage (repair and replacement costs) for damage state ds and occupancy i

BRCi = Building replacement cost of occupancy i

PMBTSTRds,i = Probability of occupancy i being in structural damage state ds

RCSds,i = Structural repair and replacement ratio for occupancy i in damage state ds

Non-Structural DamageCNSds,i = Cost of non-structural damage (repair and replacement costs) for damage state ds and occupancy i

CNSi = Cost of non-structural damage (repair and replacement costs) for occupancy i

BRCi = Building replacement cost of occupancy i

PONSds,i = Probability of occupancy i being in non-structural damage state ds,

RCds,i = Non-structural repair and replacement ratio for occupancy i in damage state ds

Content DamageCCDi = Cost of contents damage for occupancy i

CRVi = Contents replacement value for occupancy i

CDds,i = Contents damage ratio for occupancy i in damage state ds (Table 10.3)

PMBTNSds,I = Probability of occupancy i being in non-structural damage state ds

22

Casualty Model

• 2 Step Process1. leverage the USGS Pedestrian

Evacuation Analyst tool

o Estimating travel time in minutes

along road network

2. Probability of Casualties and

Fatalities

• Input data Time of day and year

Average walking speed

o Function of evacuation route grade (DEM)

and demographics (age and gender)

EQ damage assessment

Evaluation of Community

Preparedness

23

Casualty Model

• Computation Function of distance,

obstacles and evacuation route

o Evacuation time to the maximum tsunami

inundation extent

o Evacuation time to the partial safety

Needed to distinguish between fatality and

Casulty

Rcasualty =

probability in this zone

Rfatality =

probability in this zone

25

Next Steps – Hazus Tsunami Model

• Methodology & Inventory (Combined EQ & Tsunami) Essential Facilities

Displaced Households and Shelter

Debris Analysis (inventory and methodology gaps)

Lifelines/Infrastructure (inventory and methodology gaps)

• Development of training courses, technical and user manuals

• User defined reports

Living Atlas of the World Analytics : Esri Drought Tracker

http://livingatlas.arcgis.com/drought/

Temporal – 15 years of data, Trends over time, Map points in time

How Successful is this at communicating hazard risk?
