This book compiles 24 articles that cover various aspects of natural disasters, such as seismic activity, landslide vulnerability, tsunami risks along India's east coast, and the impact of sea level rise and flooding. Through these articles, the authors explore the application of Geospatial and Geomatics tools in assessing and managing natural disasters, with a special focus on Indian contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book provides an in-depth analysis of how technology like GIS and remote sensing is used in natural disaster management. Topics such as the seismic risks of South India, the potential for landslides in the Nilgiri Mountains, and the impacts of the 2004 Asian Mega Tsunami along the Tamil Nadu-Pondicherry Coast are explored. Additionally, it delves into the effects of anthropogenic factors on these disasters and the potential consequences of global warming and sea level rise on coastal areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMulti-Hazard Proneness of Indian Peninsula: Geoinformatics Solutions \/ SM.
