Assets exposure of Mumbai (India) to natural hazards

This project calculates the total building value of Mumbai, India, in order to estimate the direct damage costs to the city in the event of a natural hazard. In the paper, we consider Mumbai’s flood events. Using these building value estimates as well as projected population of Mumbai, the total bui...
