  Title Geospatial Impact Analytics of Hydrometeorological Hazards: A Study on Urban and Suburban Floods in Sri Lanka using Online Textual Data Type Conference Article
  Year 2023 Publication Proceedings of the ISCRAM Asia Pacific Conference 2022 Abbreviated Journal Proc. ISCRAM AP 2022  
  Volume Issue Pages 156-163  
  Keywords Impact-Based Warnings; Geospatial Impact; Textual Data; Urban Flood  
  Abstract Urban and suburban communities in tropical countries like Sri Lanka typically experience hydrometeorological hazards that substantially damage property and lives. Although accurate forecasts of weather events are available, the decision-makers often fail to mitigate the actual impact of these forecasts alone. The adverse impacts experienced by the community and reported by news and online media complement this fact. The forecast-impact disparity underpins the scope for holistically linking the forecast data with actual impact. This paper presents a work-in-progress study that develops a geospatial analytics framework using online textual data for assessing the spatiotemporal impact of the hydrometeorological hazards in disaster hot spots. The preliminary findings show prospects for extending the study to impact-focused visualization and forecasting that capture the community's and decision makers' attention for better interventions. For example, these include the degree of disaster response, planning and scheduling critical infrastructure and estimating damages, compensations and insurance claims.
