Project: InaSAFE

Version: 4.0.0

Feature: Eathquake changes

Earthquake analysis has undergone an overhaul too. The spatial output of earthquake on population is now a raster symbolised to show whether each cell is thought to be a source of displaced people or not. This is illustrated in the accompanying screenshot. Also the choice of which algorithm to use for earthquake analysis has now been moved to the InaSAFE options dialog in Plugins -> InaSAFE -> Options -> Basic Options. The ITB Bayesian fatality rates algorithm is now used by default. Note that earthquake fatality estimates are now reported as ranges as shown in the second screenshot below. For example where we compute 57 fatalities, the report will show 0-100 fatalities. This is done to ensure that the report reader understands that the numbers are estimations and should not be construed as exact data.
