A well-articulated problem in the risk assessment process is
the document-based and dispersed nature of data sources that
store such information. Given that, synthesizing and storing large
amounts of information in efficient ways for better risk assessments
has been a recurrent theme for research studies (Shaffner 2011).
In relation to that, identification of the critical parameters to consider
during the risk assessment of dams and managing such information
for better access and manipulation have been the primary
focus in the study.
