摘要:
The present invention provides a method and system making it possible to reduce a description of the impact of a disaster on the world at large to measurable, firm-specific operational and financial implications. This makes it possible to bridge the divide between disaster prediction and business planning by facilitating the translation of physical and other effects of a disaster on a business into a dollars-and-cents impact. The present invention also allows a user to evaluate the costs and benefits of various disaster mitigation plans and/or policies and to understand the combined effects of multiple mitigation plans.
