Layer: Environmental Vulnerability Index (ID: 47)

Name: Environmental Vulnerability Index

Display Field: Name

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: The Environmental Vulnerability Index (EVI) is based on 50 indicators for estimating the vulnerability of the environment of a country to future shocks. These indicators are combined by simple averaging and reported simultaneously as a single index, a range of policy-relevant thematic sub-indices and as a profile showing the results for each indicator. Simple averages across indicators were used because they can be easily understood and more complex models do not appear to offer any advantages to the expression or utility of the index. This overview with drill-down structure means that in addition to an overall signal of vulnerability, the EVI can be used to identify specific problems. The EVI has been designed to reflect the extent to which the natural environment of a country is prone to damage and degradation.
