Welcome to Riskscape

RiskScape is an easy-to-use multi-hazard impact and risk assessment tool developed in partnership between GNS Science and the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research.

The RiskScape model provides a framework to calculate the risk of impact to assets from different types of natural hazards. Risk information can then inform decision making for a range of natural hazard management activities including land-use planning, emergency management, asset management and insurance.

This website provides you with information about the RiskScape model and program.

*The RiskScape team encourages everyone involved in natural hazard risk management and affiliated with New Zealand local or central government, civil defence emergency management groups and research institutions to register and download RiskScape with a FREE two month license.

Private sector organisations are also encouraged to register their interest in using RiskScape by contacting the RiskScape team to discuss how the RiskScape model can support their natural hazard risk management requirements.
