We translate the expected damage for each feature calculated from the [Resilience-Adjusted Risk Framework](/climate-resilience-suite/climate-risk-and-resilience-index/methodology-1-3-resilience-adjusted-risk-framework.md) into a set of scores that capture both the shifting intensity of risk from the current period to 2100 as well as the adaptation capacity of each location, resulting in an overall "ground-truth" resilience profile.

These scores work like risk ratings based on a score card that scales with the intensity of the hazard, giving the absolute risk exposure of a location for one type of risk at any given scenario and time period on a scale of 0-100. Please refer to the score card above for how the scores and categories are assigned for each index.

The category breaks are based on the Mean Damage Ratio (MDR) for the respective features. The higher the risk scores and category assigned for each feature, the higher the expected mean damage ratio caused by the contributing feature, and the more advanced the mitigation strategies required.

The overall scores, i.e. the **Overall Physical Climate Risk Score** and **Overall Resilience-adjusted Risk Score**, are global percentile scores that measures the overall risk profile of a location in comparison to other locations, allowing users to compare the overall risk profile of one location against another.

### Example

The platform offers two set of scores: the **Physical Risk Scores**, where the hazard exposure is scored on a scale of 0-100, and the **Resilience-Adjusted Risk Score**, where local adaptation features, and societal resilience are applied to reduce the physical risk scores where applicable. The image below shows the visualization of the dashboard for one sample location.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.alphageo.ai/climate-resilience-suite/climate-risk-and-resilience-index/methodology-3-3-indexing.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
