Physical Indicators

 

​

​

​

The Physical Indicators comprise household, community and sector level datasets that measure the  household/community capacity to respond to disasters based on physical factors that influence vulnerability. The weighted values for each indicator is summated then added to a formulae that calculates the overall physical vulnerability score for the community which accounts for 25% of the total vulnerability score and rank for the community. The following physical indicators are included in the NVRI.

​
