Zusammenfassung
Observations from the affected population can be an important source of information for disaster management and rapid loss estimation. New Internet technologies facilitate fast and easy data collection from the public. A major obstacle for using this information is its unknown quality. This research will develop methods to assess the quality of observations from the affected population for rapid loss estimation after flood events. It will yield an assessment of the fitness for use of flood observations from the public for empirical loss modeling and an automated procedure to evaluate the quality of these observations.
