Risk Data Hub API (version 1.0.0) Documentation
Data on hazards, exposure, vulnerability, and damage and loss information from previous disasters are essential to understand disaster risks and design more tailored policies and disaster reduction measures and actions. The Risk Data Hub (RDH) operated by the Disaster Risk Management Knowledge Centre (DRMKC) has been engaged in the exploration, assessment, and aggregation of data pertaining to disaster risk within Europe. Furthermore, the RDH has consistently compiled, processed, and standardized disaster loss data from openly accessible data sources. Subsequently, the RDH has generated a variety of resources such as maps, dashboards, and reports, offering users valuable insights into the prevailing disaster risk landscape in Europe. This effort has garnered significant interest from numerous stakeholders who are eager to access the raw data due to its substantial relevance for disaster risk reduction (DRR).
In response to this demand, the RDH has introduced a newly developed Application Programming Interface (API) that empowers users to query the core datasets within the RDH database. This feature allows users to autonomously extract the data they require. The RDH API presents robust search capabilities, enabling users to retrieve specific data elements tailored to their individual needs.
