### Hazard Code Mapping

Example mappings from IFRC disaster types to **2025 UNDRR-ISC Hazard Information Profiles** codes:

```python

{

"Earthquake": ["GH0101"], # Consolidated in 2025 update

"Cyclone": ["MH0306", "MH0307", "MH0308", "MH0309"], # Depression/Cyclone, Extra-tropical, Sub-tropical, Tropical
148-
"Flood": ["MH0604"], # Fluvial (Riverine) Flooding
149-
"Tsunami": ["MH0705"], # Moved to Marine-related in 2025

#### Hazard Type Mapping
141+
142+
IFRC DREF uses disaster type names and must follow the **2025 UNDRR-ISC** code as the **reference classification** for the Monty extension:
143+
144+
| IFRC Disaster Type | GLIDE | EM-DAT | **UNDRR-ISC 2025** (Reference) | Cluster | Description |
145+
| ---------------------- | ----- | ------------------- | ------------------------------ | ---------- | ------------------------------- |
146+
| Earthquake | EQ | nat-geo-ear-gro | **GH0101** | GEO-SEIS | Earthquake |
147+
| Cyclone | TC | nat-met-sto-tro | **MH0309** | MH-WIND | Tropical Cyclone |
148+
| Volcanic Eruption | VO | nat-geo-vol-vol | **GH0201** | GEO-VOLC | Lava Flows |
149+
| Tsunami | TS | nat-geo-ear-tsu | **MH0705** | MH-MARINE | Tsunami |
150+
| Flood | FL | nat-hyd-flo-flo | **MH0600** | MH-WATER | Flooding (chapeau) |
151+
| Cold Wave | CW | nat-met-ext-col | **MH0502** | MH-TEMP | Cold Wave |
152+
| Fire | FR | tec-ind-fir-fir | **TL0305** | TECH-INDFAIL | Fire (Industrial) |
153+
| Heat Wave | HT | nat-met-ext-hea | **MH0501** | MH-TEMP | Heatwave |
154+
| Drought | DR | nat-cli-dro-dro | **MH0401** | MH-PRECIP | Drought |
155+
| Storm Surge | SS | nat-met-sto-sur | **MH0703** | MH-MARINE | Storm Surge |
156+
| Landslide | LS | nat-geo-mmd-lan | **GH0300** | GEO-GFAIL | Gravitational Mass Movement |
157+
| Flash Flood | FF | nat-hyd-flo-fla | **MH0603** | MH-WATER | Flash Flooding |
158+
| Epidemic | EP | nat-bio-epi-dis | **BI0101** | BIO-INFECT | Infectious Diseases |

> [!NOTE]
155-
> The 2025 update consolidated multiple earthquake-related HIPs (GH0001-GH0005) into a single Earthquake HIP (GH0101), and reclassified Tsunami from Geological to Meteorological & Hydrological hazards.
161+
> All three classification codes (GLIDE, EM-DAT, UNDRR-ISC 2025) should be included in the `monty:hazard_codes` array for maximum interoperability. More specific [hazard codes](../../taxonomy.md#complete-2025-hazard-list) can be added following the characteristics of the event. The 2025 update consolidated multiple earthquake-related HIPs into a single Earthquake HIP (GH0101), and reclassified Tsunami from Geological to Meteorological & Hydrological hazards.

This mapping enables standardized hazard categorization while preserving IFRC's original disaster type classification in the source properties.
