Abstract

In this paper, the rapid assessment method of casualties in earthquake disasters is studied and a casualty assessment model based on coupling factors is established from the perspective of factors affecting casualties in earthquake disasters. Taking Guangdong area as an example, the spatialization and quantification of casualty coupling factors in earthquake disasters are analyzed in detail. A software system is developed based on ARC Engine 10.1 platform. For the same earthquake case, different algorithms (algorithm model based on coupling factor and algorithm model based on building seismic vulnerability) are used to calculate the number of casualties in order to compare research results.
