We will create a DRI for Davao City, Philippines.

· Introduction to GIS Case Study—Philippines-Mindanao-Davao City (Pop. 1.3 million) Links

We will explore the data and prepare for the lab.

· We will start with the preliminary EDA done by myself and the fall 2007 students. Davao City Preliminary Risk & Vulnerability Assessment.

NDCC

Mapping Vulnerability in the Philippines.

Overview: Risk Mapping (UNDP Algorithm)

Step 1: Open ArcGIS 9.2.

Step 2: Connect to the lab folder and open the base map.

Step 3: Construct model (whiteboard-data exercise). MODEL

Step 4: Add H maps (Flood, Landslide, Liquefaction), Hfr proxy.

Step 5: Add PhExp maps (Population count in intersecting barangay)

Step 6: Add Vm maps. HDI proxy, POPDEN,  HHC.

Step 6a: Modify POPDEN with settlements.

Step 7: Cartographic Modeling-Overlay (AND) analysis. Hazard classification and ranking.

We will most likely end here. We will resume this Session 6 and Session 7(each1/2 hour).

Step 8: Update attribute table (barangay) with R index.

Step 9: Map R (by category.

Step 10: Add new medical and emergency response layer.

Step 11: Build Geo-database.

I will enable the data link this weekend. This will provide you with several files you can open with Arc Explorer.

NOTE: While risk will decline with distance from the hazard, we will also consider the indirect effects upon adjacent and proximal areas.

 

EXERCISE GRADING: (Tentative)

A maximum score of 100% for each exercise is 7.5% of the final grade.

· 70% of the exercise grade is completing the analysis problem example. Students are provided a Geodatabase, and an example assessment task; which we work through as a team.

· 30% of the exercise grade is completing the analysis problem (also an assessment task).
