Location-specific Vulnerability Assessment Hydrological modeling provided location-specific estimates of the depth, duration and extent of flooding. The impact of inundation of even the same depth and duration on population and infrastructure differ significantly depending on an affected area's disaster resilience. The climate disaster resilience of Dhaka City at ward and thana level were quantified with 125 variables (25 components along five dimensions physical, social, economic, institutional and natural). Survey data was collected and experts were consulted to quantify location-specific disaster resilience.
