What is Project NOAH?
Specifically, Project NOAH aims to provide:
• flood mitigation system, specifically targeting a 6 hour flood
early warning system for communities along 18 major river
systems;
• enhancement of geohazard maps and;
• enhancement of storm surge vulnerability maps
As per President Aquino’s directive
to put in place a responsive
program for disaster prevention &
mitigation, the Department of
Science & Technology launched
Project NOAH last July 2012 in
Marikina City.
Nartea, 2012
advanced disaster science research
How do we do this?
multidisciplinary assessment of hazards
develop accessible tools that enable prevention &
mitigation of disasters
(LGUs, planners, policy makers, communities, individuals, families)

Vulnerability
The characteristics and circumstances of a
community, system or asset that make it
susceptible to the damaging effects of a
hazard (UNISDR, 2007)
RA 10121 (Philippine DRRM Act of 2010)
pinpoints the source of vulnerability from:
• Physical factors
• Social factors
• Economic factors and
• Environmental factors

WebSAFE
WebSAFE allows users to
calculate the number of
population exposed to a
particular risk such as flood
hazard in question format.
For example: In the event of a
100-year flood in Quezon City,
how many people (population)
will need evacuation?
