Calgary Disaster Risk Explorer
The Calgary Disaster Risk Explorer presents hazards that potentially pose the greatest risk to the city.
Calgary is one of the most livable cities on the planet. It is the third largest municipality in Canada, serving over 1.2 million people, and has an excellent quality of life, low taxes and terrific access to nature on our back doorstep. Calgary is a place where people come to collaborate, cooperate and to build together towards a better life.
Calgary is also vulnerable to a number of disaster-related risks due to the range of hazards and threats that can exist in every large city. Hazards such as flooding, winter storms, hail, infrastructure failures and tornadoes can have significant consequences to our built, economic, natural, social and government systems.
The City conducts a detailed Disaster Risk Assessment (DRA) to understand the risks in Calgary and is continuously working to reduce risk through mitigation projects, warning systems, bylaws, and much more. A technical summary of the assessment is documented in the 2018 Disaster Risk Report.
