Learning Outcomes
At the end of this module, the learners will be able to:
• Understand various DOST-PHIVOLCS DRR
information tools;
• Formulate action plans that integrate what they have
learned from the guidebook with various DRR activities;
and,
• Integrate volcano and earthquake hazards in
developing their DRRMPlan.

Hazard Maps

PHIVOLCS produces maps

showing areas prone to earthquake
or volcanic hazards.

These are made available to users

either as printed output or digital
data.

Hazards Assessment Service: Earthquake and
Volcanic Hazards Assessment Report
The DOST-PHIVOLCS’ Hazard Assessment Service (HAS) is one of PHIVOLCS’
frontline services that determines if an earthquake and/or volcanic hazard is present in
a particular parcel of land of interest to a stakeholder, the result of which is contained in
a Hazard Assessment Report (HAR). It is also responsible for providing hazard
information packages requested by stakeholders.

Hazard Assessment Report (HAR) – is a document that contains the hazard

assessment for a particular parcel of land of interest to a stakeholder. The HAR by
itself is NOT an approval, endorsement or authorization for further government
procedure. This system is supported by GeoRiskPH. All hazard information is from
DOST-PHIVOLCS. Hazard information may be refined as new data become available.
Rest assured that all information will be treated with the utmost confidentiality.

Online Hazards Assessment Services are accessible

 REDAS by DOST-PHIVOLCS
• REDAS (Rapid Earthquake Damage Assessment System) is a
software developed by DOST-PHIVOLCS in 2002 under a DOST-
GIA Project.

• simulate earthquake hazards such as ground shaking, liquefaction, landslides

and tsunamis.

• compute earthquake impacts in terms of physical damage, casualties and

economic losses.

• other multi-hazard maps including hydrometeorological hazards such as

floods, storm surges and rain-induced landslides are already incorporated into
the software and can likewise be displayed by users.

• develop their own exposure database using an android application.
