How to use RAPID-N
Methodology, models, technical information and tutorials
RAPID-N is a web-based system for analyzing and mapping the risk of natural hazard impacts on industrial sites, also referred to as Natech risk. The system has been developed and is hosted by the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) in response to stakeholder requests to support the systematic analysis of Natech risk. Since such multi-hazard risk analysis is very complex, comprehensive RAPID-N user guides were released in 2012 and 2018, describing the features of the system in detail and providing simple step-by-step guidance on how to use the system.
This document complements and expands on the existing user guides by providing detailed information on the consequence models implemented in RAPID-N. Moreover, it features supplementary tutorials that guide users through different Natech risk analysis case studies with increasing complexity. This guidance document also explains how to activate a new RAPID-N functionality that enables Natech consequence analysis using the calculation libraries of ADAM, a sophisticated consequence analysis system also developed by the JRC.
