This map displays the created hazard risk index for the 2010 census tracts of South Carolina. The hazards taken into account are: earthquakes, liquefaction, landslides, hurricanes, floods, droughts, social vulnerability, and vulnerability to groundwater contamination. Each individual tract for each hazard had a index risk rating from 1 - 5, then the ratings from all hazards were added together to produce this index, ranging from 8 (lowest risk of hazards) to 40 (highest risk of hazards).

This map displays the created hazard index for the 2010 census tracts of South Carolina. The hazards taken into account are: earthquakes, liquefaction, landslides, hurricanes, floods, droughts, social vulnerability, and vulnerability to groundwater contamination. Each individual tract for each hazard had a index risk rating from 1 - 5, then the ratings from all hazards were assigned different weights based on economic loss. The social vulnerability was given the largest weight to take into account effect on human populations, and the rest of the hazards were weighted in the following order (decreasing weight): hurricanes, droughts, floods, earthquakes, liquefaction, groundwater contamination, and landslides.
