Central Asia exposure dataset - infrastructure

Regional layer of power and communications infrastructure in Central Asia. The dataset has been developed based on infrastructure data collected from global/regional layers and based on local data.

    Regional layer of power and communications infrastructure in Central Asia. The dataset has been developed based on infrastructure data collected from global/regional layers and based on local data. The layers contain point infrastructure (extraction sites and mines, power plants, dams and reservoirs) and lines infrastructure (oil, gas and water pipelines, electricity and communication network). Application of this information should on smaller scales should be done with care and taking into account the limitations of the approach.

Publisher of dataset RED - Risk, Engineering Development - Pavia (Italy)
Dataset version 2022
Data purpose Regional risk modelling. These data have been derived on a regional scale for the purpose of consistent regional multi-country hazard and risk assessment. Application of this information on smaller scales should be done with care. Importantly on a local scale, it is often the case that more detailed history and hazard information is required to perform such hazard and risk modelling, particularly were applied to dimension mitigation structures or strategies., it is often the case that more detailed history and hazard information is required to perform such hazard and risk modelling, particularly were applied to dimension mitigation structures or strategies
Project that produced the dataset SFRARR - Strengthening Financial Resilience and Accelerating Risk Reduction in Central Asia
Additional details Data from the EU-funded 'Strengthening Financial Resilience and Accelerating Risk Reduction in Central Asia' Program. (https://www.gfdrr.org/en/program/SFRARR-Central-Asia). Exposure data developed using high-resolution global and regional datasets and local official data, harmonized to produce a regionally-consistent exposure database for Central Asia. The exposure database includes: population, residential buildings, non-residential buildings (schools, healthcare facilities, industrial and commercial buildings), croplands, transportation system (roads, railways and bridges), airports and airstrips, mines, and supply infrastructure. The exposure database developed during this project can be used at regional scale, national scale or sub-national scale (e.g., at Oblast scale).
