Real Time Risk Assessment

myDEWETRA.world is not a mere weather data visualizer, but it represents a fully integrated system for the analysis and projection of hazard-related events in multiple space and time scales, while also providing calculated impact-oriented scenarios evaluating vulnerability and exposure information to solve the risk equation.

myDEWETRA.world works as single point of access to international heritage data, previously identified, collected and systemized within a single platform. Upon formal agreement, authorized users can also integrate their own data, allowing for a wider interconnectedness among information from different sources. This is expected to facilitate disaster risk managers’ monitoring capacities and to foster effective disaster risk responses at any scale.

Applicability and use of the platform

The myDEWETRA.world platform is designed to cover a wide range of potential end-users involved in risk management, risk reduction and civil protection with different roles and responsibilities to align with relevant governance framework and mandates. For proper use of the system, basic GIS skills and knowledge about the physical meaning of the information provided by the platform (sensor data, algorithms and model outputs) are required. Training sessions and manuals are available to the end user through a dedicated wiki page.

myDEWETRA.world platform provides four different levels of access that offer a different degree of flexibility of use. Click here to discover more.
