The hydrogeological hazard susceptibility and its spatial distribution is also mapped by integrating geospatial techniques and mathematical modeling approach through remote sensing and Geographical Information System (GIS). On the other hand, questionnaires and interview are used to evaluate the community‘s perception on the risk of hazards. The results unveiled different zones most susceptible to the incidence of both hazards as well as their main contributing factors. Furthermore, the results revealed that the government is perceived as responsible for all mitigation measures instead of being a shared responsibility, a perception that may also contribute to the increase in susceptibility. Therefore, it is necessary to deliver the extent of disaster-related courses and trainings in both schools (from primary to tertiary level) and local community members, which helps improving the public‘s awareness, understanding and ability by providing a new pe | | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | | 关键词 | Disaster Risk Reduction; Flood Hazard Monitoring; Hydrogeological Hazard; GIS of Disaster Risk Monitori | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-99-1751-8 | | isbn_softcover | 978-981-99-1753-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-981-99-1751-8 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapor |
