System and method for accessing potential damage to infrastructure items after natural events

摘要

Systems and methods for responding to a risk of damage caused by a natural event are presented. A method presented includes checking a sensor system database on a regular period for an occurrence of a natural event. If the natural event has occurred, a determination can be made as to whether the natural event is of sufficient strength and proximity to an infrastructure item to create a potential hazard to the infrastructure item. If so, a map of the severity of the natural event can be obtained from the sensor system database and compared to a database of infrastructure items. The database includes a fragility index associated with each infrastructure item. A customized checklist can then be generated for inspection of the infrastructure item.
