Economics of Resilient Infrastructure

 
2012-2016, New Zealand

The Economics of Resilient Infrastructure (EoRI) project is a research project funded by the New Zealand government.

The project will develop a new tool which will:

* Quantify the economic implications of vulnerabilities to infrastructure failure from both natural hazards and infrastructure-only events, and

* explore alternative post disaster recovery strategies.

The key output will be a high resolution assessment across space and through time of the economic consequences of infrastructure failure, business response and recovery options.
