DLS-203 Life Loss Estimation: Warning Delay and Protective Action Initiation
Channel: USACE Risk Management Center
Date: 23/05/2023

Explore how the USACE RMC uses LifeSim, a software tool used to estimate consequences from flooding. LifeSim provides the tools to determine the potential for life loss and economic damages to support risk assessments. In addition, the software provides the tools to perform alternative analysis to promote potentially cost-saving measures on projects to reduce risk.

Module Objectives 
• Use LifeSim to estimate life loss in a particular simulation 
• Describe “warning” in all its forms, as well as its application in LifeSim
