Abstract

This study focuses on Shanxi Province, establishing an index system for assessing rainstorm disaster risk based on four factors: risk, vulnerability, sensitivity, and disaster prevention capabilities. The evaluation employs the analytic hierarchy process and a weighted comprehensive assessment method. The findings indicate that certain areas in Taiyuan City and Hunyuan County are classified as high-risk zones, while Yangquan City and the western part of Luliang City are deemed medium-risk areas. Most regions in Shuozhou City, Xinzhou City, Changzhi City, Jincheng City, and Jinzhong City fall into the low-risk category.
