The Geophilosophical realness of risk, as introduced in this study constitutes risk hotspots or coldspots information that are stored and sorted in hexagonal bins which represent geographical space. Using the binning technique, the author disclosed the 29,400 hectares in Albay Philippines are 99% significantly sited as risk hotspot physical space. Also, about 7,100 hectares, and 3,100 hectares have 95% and 90% significant risk hotspots, respectively. This study also presents resiliency being measured as a risk quantity, nearing a zero z-score that is enveloped by the fundamental geoinformation prerequisite to select safe, comfortable, and accessible space. The z-scores represent the risk hotspots and coldspots contained in hexagonal bins which mimic geographical aspects of the risk realness in Albay. The same z-scores were substituted for the 25 resettlement sites which provided answers to the query “what are the risk realities in NHA resettlement sites?” The results characterized the risk that are spreading at 14 resettlement’s sites in Albay are generally located within risk hotspot areas. This information is significant in preventing and mitigating risk receptively and responsively. The researcher concludes that DRRM entails interdisciplinary thinking to apply geospatial data science to risk governance. This dissertation revealed that government intervention may be ineffective when people are steadily allowed to occupy risk hotspots that weakens their capacity to defy the quantified risk as well as the accumulated and unbearable risk residuals caused by the unforeseen effects of changing climate such as volcanic eruptions, lahar, increasing flooding, and pandemics. The Metatheorems in this study posit that dependable preparedness is unlikely if the risk hotspots and coldspots of geographical locations are unknown or unclear, which would guide environmental planners, engineers, development managers, and decision makers to direct the people to suitably select safe space, comfortable sites, and accessible sites. Furthermore, this study presents that scientifically informed policy is a must-risk-reduction solution to restore stability (state of balance). Therefore, the practical implication of this study is providing a basis where a decision maker can picture when stability is unattainable the approach is to bring the development in the tri-nodal cities outside the risk trending areas in Albay.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
