Damage assessment

Damage assessment is the process of evaluating the extent and impact of harm caused by an event, such as a natural disaster, accident, or conflict. It involves inspecting affected areas, collecting information about losses (like property damage or injuries), and determining the needs of affected individuals or communities. This assessment helps organizations and governments plan recovery efforts, allocate resources effectively, and provide support to those impacted. Accurate damage assessments are crucial for timely response and long-term rebuilding strategies.
