The Preparing Australia Program (PAP) tropical cyclone data analysis explores the relative vulnerability of Local Government Areas (LGA, Australian Statistical Geography Standard, 2020) to tropical cyclone-related winds. This relies on a combination of the hazard (magnitude and likelihood) and the vulnerability (level of damage for given hazard level).
