Atlas
Global Disasters Risk Dashboard
The Emergency Events Database (EM-DAT) data, provided by the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED), was used to generate the map layers included in the atlas (https://www.emdat.be). The atlas can be filtered to South Africa, displaying the number of geophysical, meteorological, hydrological, and climatological natural disaster events across the country from 1952.
