Abstract
Geoscience Australia has collaboratively developed a number of open source software models and tools to estimate hazard, impact and risk to communicaties for a range of natural hazard to support disaster risk reduction in Australia and the region. These models and tools include: * ANUGA * EQRM * TCRM * TsuDAT * RICS * FiDAT This presentation will discuss the drivers for developing these models and tools using open source software and the benefits to the end-users in the emergency management and planning community as well as the broader research community. Progress and plans for these models and tools will also be outlined in particular those that take advantage of the availability of high performance computing, cloud computing, webservices and global initiatives such as the Global Earthquake Model.
