Leveraging Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for Economic Insights in Climate-Induced Disaster Risk Management
Climate-related disasters like floods, storms, and air pollution are no longer rare occurrences. For businesses that rely on location-based assets—such as retail outlets, transportation hubs, and supply chains—the economic implications are substantial. Our WebGIS Dashboard is designed to help organizations assess, anticipate, and mitigate these risks through data-driven insights.
Flooding can disrupt supply chains, increase inventory costs, and impact customer access, leading to significant revenue loss.
High winds can delay transportation, increase maintenance costs, and disrupt distribution networks, affecting operational efficiency.
Poor air quality can decrease foot traffic in urban areas and impact workforce productivity, indirectly affecting profitability.
The financial impacts of disasters differ by sector. Retail businesses, for instance, face not only physical damage but also disruptions in customer access and supply availability, leading to stockouts and increased costs. Transportation companies encounter delays and rerouting expenses, while sectors reliant on outdoor activities experience reduced customer flow.
To assess these impacts, businesses need tools that combine economic modeling with environmental monitoring. The WebGIS Dashboard addresses this need by providing a real-time, data-rich environment for evaluating both immediate risks and long-term financial consequences, empowering businesses to make evidence-based decisions.
