dc.description.abstract | Floods, wild fires, hurricanes, and tornadoes are just a few examples of natural phenomena that cost the state millions of dollars in property and infrastructure damage. National, state, and local agencies are working with Virginia's Department of Emergency Management (VDEM) and researchers at the Virginia Tech Center for Geospatial Information Technology (CGIT) to develop part of a revised statewide plan for communities to identify these risks, vulnerabilities, and estimate potential losses. | en |
