I did manage to sit in on this (past) event, see offer below.

 How do homeowners and communities in New Zealand stay resilient in the face of frequent natural hazards?

Urban Intelligence will be demoing their Resilience Explorertool, and the Commission will walk us through their Natural Hazards Portal. Both tools help New Zealanders understand and prepare for risks posed by natural hazards across their homes and communities.

I (Bruce Spedding) recently watched an overview /. demo of Resilience Explorer (see past event listed above) . As an example it showed not only which houses might need to be evacuated in a flooding event, but which areas in a community may lose power, other utilities or access etc. HCC is not a subscriber (I notice that WEMO is however). I've been asked if I am interested in a demo, and I explained that ECB was not in a position to sign up for such a tool - however I have received an offer of a demo, so I'm looking for any indications of interest. Since WREMO are already signed up we may have access through them?

 Note: we create this newsletter "on the fly" as information and events come to our attention. Sometimes short notice of event dates mean the event passes before we send this out, so each email may be triggered but an upcoming event rather than a reasonable interval since the last release. Please feel free to give feedback on content and frequency of news, and send through items you might feel are of interest to the group.
