Tsunami Vulnerability Assessment and Its Implications for Disaster Risk Management in the coastal area of Purworejo Regency

Tsunamis are disasters with unpredictable events, but the occurrence of tsunamis in Indonesia always has a significant impact on every sector of life, especially the economy and society. The position of the Indonesian State, which is located in the subduction zones as well as the increasing human activity in coastal areas, are the factors that trigger the tsunami, which is accompanied by losses and damages. One of them is Purworejo Regency, which is directly adjacent to the Indian Ocean. Vulnerability assessment is the focus of this paper. This study uses a quantitative analysis approach with analytical methods in the form of scoring analysis. Weighted cell-based data processing is the main cog in vulnerability assessment. The combination of economic and social parameters creates a vulnerability. Financial vulnerability is measured based on GRDP and productive land, while social vulnerability is estimated based on population density and vulnerable communities. The vulnerability analysis results are in the form of total vulnerability level in the medium class, the level of economic vulnerability in the low, quality, and social vulnerability in the medium class associated with the implication of disaster risk management.
