Extreme
Weather Cataloge

Developing resilience against extreme weather threats caused by climate change at local level in Central Europe.

The preparation of the EWC started with a workshop which included

A joint and in-depth preparation of project partners and associated partners on the following topics and preparation of the next steps of the activity. Project partners conducted comparable questionnaire and interview-based surveys in the project regions to gain insights on types of national/territorial disasters, disaster management systems, location-specific extreme weather events (occurrence, location, description; primary/secondary impacts), and locally available management and mitigation capacities/best practices.

Based on the data received, the project partners analysed the processed data, compared the response plans/measures and created a joint interactive EWC, which provides a combined view of threat and disaster management capacities/exercises.
The EWC is thus a common database of project regions that combines typical extreme weather events with locally applicable measures, capacities and resources, allowing for criterion-specific and correlation analysis.

Event Map

The Event Map is an interactive map showing the locations and times of various extreme weather events in the past. It is an interactive map where users can zoom, navigate the map and click on different events to get detailed information.

What type of data can be found on this map?

The type of extreme weather event, the date and duration of the event, the geographical location, the exact location of the event, the severity and intensity of the damage event, the consequences of the extreme weather event and the damages caused.

Users can filter by location and type of event.

Featured event descriptions uploaded to the Event Map are used to visualise the weather events that have occurred, which can help to analyse weather trends and patterns, and understand the locations and times of extreme events.

LOCALIENCE = LOCAL + RESILIENCE

The aim of our project is to improve the response capacity and resilience to extreme weather events in the region, to improve cooperation between disaster management, water management, fire-rescue organizations, to strengthen the relationship with local non-professional public and civil actors based via a high level professional logic.

International cooperation led by the Ministry of Public Administration and Regional Development, with 11 partners from 5 countries.
