Agencies in charge of flood management use disaster reports (DRs) as the preferred source of information on past flooding events. A systematic survey of DRs prepared by Italian agencies suggests that DRs could be widely enhanced in view of targeting more effective communication to citizens, reinforcing the communication pillar in civil protection planning and management, and improving the resilience of the population to extreme events. Without loss of the rigor and details required for all the usual technical uses of DRs, we suggest recompiling them in the form of “disaster tales” (DTs), as tools that offer wider knowledge of the events to improve people’s preparedness and self-protection behavior. Recent major flooding events have demonstrated the communication potential that videos and pictures taken by citizens have for risk perception and disaster preparedness. By watching and listening to what has happened the communication recipient can better understand the feelings of the people experiencing an emergency. The structure of the improved reports, we suggest, will finally integrate data, graphs, and maps with interactive tools and be able to present handier multimedia views of the events. Application to three case studies of flooding in Italy illustrates how to concretely implement the suggested disaster reports to create more readily accessible disaster tales.

洪水管理主管机构将灾难报告（DR）用作过去洪水事件信息的首选来源。由意大利机构编写的对灾难恢复的系统调查表明，鉴于可以与市民进行更有效的沟通，可以加强灾难恢复，因此可以加强民防规划和管理中的沟通基础，并提高人们对极端事件的抵御能力。在不损失灾难恢复所有常规技术用途所需的严格性和细节的情况下，我们建议以“灾难故事”（DT）的形式重新编译灾难恢复，这是一种工具，可以提供对事件的更广泛的了解，从而提高人们的备灾能力和自我保护能力。行为。最近发生的重大洪水事件表明，公民拍摄的视频和图片对于风险感知和灾难准备具有交流潜力。通过观看和收听发生的事情，通讯接收者可以更好地了解遇到紧急情况的人们的感受。我们建议，改进后的报告的结构将最终将数据，图形和地图与交互式工具集成在一起，并能够呈现事件的更便捷的多媒体视图。在意大利三个洪水案例研究中的应用说明了如何具体实施建议的灾难报告，以创建更容易获得的灾难故事。我们建议，改进后的报告的结构将最终将数据，图形和地图与交互式工具集成在一起，并能够呈现事件的更便捷的多媒体视图。在意大利三个洪水案例研究中的应用说明了如何具体实施建议的灾难报告，以创建更容易获得的灾难故事。我们建议，改进后的报告的结构将最终将数据，图形和地图与交互式工具集成在一起，并能够呈现事件的更便捷的多媒体视图。在意大利三个洪水案例研究中的应用说明了如何具体实施建议的灾难报告，以创建更容易获得的灾难故事。
