Multiscale Social Vulnerability in U.S.

Social vulnerability indices created using the SoVI (2016) recipe for the U.S. using multiple data resolutions and index construction extents for 2018-2021. Indices were created in R using an automated construction script that can be found at https://github.com/katesnelson/MultiscalarSVI. The data and accompanying manuscript are published at Nelson, K. S. (2025). Where scale matters for social vulnerability indices: a multiyear analysis of the US. International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction, 105513. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijdrr.2025.105513
