Geospatial Analysis of Disasters and Hazards

Introduction

This is a special issue of IJGER regarding a variety of geospatial technologies (e.g., GIS, Remote Sensing, spatial statistics) and topics that address disasters and hazards in either natural or urban or coupled human and natural environment. The catastrophic consequences of disasters and hazards around the globe highlight the necessity of understanding a spatial perspective to disasters and hazards. We have finally published six articles dealing with innovative examples of the use of GIS, RS, geovisualization, or spatial statistics for disaster and hazard planning, mitigation, response, assessment, or management.
