Abstract
The National Exposure Information System (NEXIS) generates a nationally consistent dataset of the best available exposure information for Australia. NEXIS was developed from the recommendations made to the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) in 2003. NEXIS integrates diverse datasets to produce detailed information at building and business level for multi-hazard risk assessments. The NEXIS Business Module enhances risk assessments for various natural and man-made hazards. The module involves detailed spatial analysis and the integration of numerous demographic, structural, statistical and cost factor datasets as well as engineering assumptions. Produced is the best available exposure information regarding business categories, employment figures, replacement value and locations. GA has currently completed the basic framework and generic version of the NEXIS Business Module with future scope to develop decision support systems suitable for policy makers and emergency managers. This emerging capability is informing assessments of risk and will lead to more resilient business activity.
