Title
TZA: Tanzania Risk Profile - Floods & Droughts (2019)
Abstract

The 2019 revision includes:

- Better link to the Sendai Indicators;
- Homogenisation of hypotheses and fine tuning as designed during the development of the 16 risk profiles (e.g. scenarios
hazard maps interpolation parameters, pluvial flooding hazard assumptions);
- Homogenisation of Layers (e.g. update of the roads classification and values on the basis of the workshops feedbacks);
- Use of new available regional data that were not available during the first iteration for the exposure downscaling (e.g. Sentinel-2
Land use, OSM updates);
- Use of new local data provided after the workshops (e.g. new administrative boundaries, new critical infrastructures layers);
- Point by-hand modifications on hotspots highlighted by local people at the workshops:

i) location of high potential loss facilities,
ii) check on flood defences assumptions on the basis of local knowledge,
iii) gap filling of hazard maps on particular vuln...
