This atlas gives the latest information regarding vulnerability of housing stock to earthquakes, cyclones; floods, landslides and thunderstorms.

A glance at the hazard maps will bring to the notice of the district authorities, the location and percent areas of the districts most susceptible to hazard occurrence, the probable maximum hazard intensities, the type of housing and its vulnerability and risk to the hazards. Knowing the extent of the problem of future disasters, the district authorities can formulate development plans for (a) preventive actions like hazard resistant construction, retrofitting and upgrading/retrofitting of existing buildings, (b) mitigating the intensity and extent of the disasters, (¢) early warning system installation and drills for its use, (d) instituting a hierarchical structure for preparedness down to the village level, (¢) training of manpower in various tasks in the emergency (f) implementation of land zoning regulations in flood plains and coastal areas, and building bylaws with disaster resistant features in various towns and cities, etc, (g) supporting land use zoning and urban planning (h) integration of DRR with development and (i) supporting in locating industries and other development projects.
