Tract housing, informal housing etc.) principle economic base socio-economic composition of neighborhoods and general infrastructure.Ī) Select one neighborhood within the city to analyze.
high rise/residential tenements, suburban Students should choose one of the following statement of the problem to guide his/her response:Ī) Google Earth/Wikimapia aerial imagery provides useful data about the exposure of human populations and the built structures to the risks of earthquakes or floods and less information about vulnerability in the city of choiceī) Google Earth/Wikimapia aerial imagery does not provide useful data about the exposure of human populations and the built structures to the risks of earthquakes or floods and less information about vulnerability in the city of choiceĪ) a brief history of the risk, within the country, associated with the particular hazard event chosen over a 50- year period and represent this data as a timeline or tableī) give an overview of the city, specifically : historical development īuilt environment (types of construction e.g. Geoscience is framed as a method of thinking and understanding the earth through the use of spatial and temporal reasoning and observation of the earth. Some of these attempts at understanding risk and disaster and also resilience can be assessed given their visibility – deaths, damage and losses, better building, where people build, economic activities and so on.but others are invisible and non- material and will pose a challenge for assessment through Google Earth and Wikimapia. Resilience is being looked at in terms of what citizens have done to withstand the impact of any hazard on their city in relation to their housings, building, general infrastructure and population well-being. In this activity risk is addressed as the likely of harm to populations in cities as well as damage to infrastructure, buildings, housing and the economic base of the society. Students will get the opportunity to hone their writing and oral presentation skills as well as learn to use web- based aerial photographs. Students will be able to find, recall and retrieve information as well as explain and summarize ideas and concepts. There are other skills that this activity aims to develop – lower order skills as well as technical and strong communications skills. justifying, checking, hypothesizing and experimenting interrogating modes of knowledge production and interpretation This activity aims at developing critical thinking skills, temporal and spatial reasoning, data analysis through the use of Google and wikimapia, synthesizing and organizing ideas, evaluating decision i.e. To ascertain the usefulness of employing specific web based (open source) technologies to assess damages and predict risk in urban areas To assess how the concepts of risk, resilience, hazard and vulnerability are applied to a real life eventī.
