SUMMARY MZCET/EEE/V Sem/MX3084_DRRM/Unit 4 Initial Evaluation : A rapid assessment conducted shortly after the disaster to identify immediate needs and priorities. Detailed Assessment : A more thorough analysis involving experts to assess damage to homes, businesses, utilities, roads, and other critical infrastructure. Data Collection : Information is gathered from affected areas through surveys, satellite imagery, and on-site inspections. Impact on Communities : Evaluates the effects on human health, safety, and economic stability. Response Planning : Helps guide the allocation of resources for recovery and response efforts, often influencing decisions about government aid and disaster relief. Reporting : The findings are compiled into a report that may include damage estimates and a request for assistance from higher authorities or international bodies. 4.4
