Abstract

Highlights Introducing a novel Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) approach that integrates satellite and GIS data for precise earthquake risk mapping and minimizing uncertainty. Achieving comprehensive earthquake risk assessment through the integration of diverse data sources. Enhancing the credibility of modeling results by validating with historical earthquake data, providing valuable insights for policymakers addressing natural hazards.
