Abstract:
When the region south of Mount Merapi volcano in central Java, Indonesia, was struck by a magnitude 6.4 earthquake, the city of Yogyakarta and its suburbs were partly devastated. The event caused severe damage to the densely inhabited area, leaving about 6000 people dead, 50,000 injured, and between 500,000 and 1 million homeless. With over 155,000 houses totally destroyed and 200,000 damaged, more houses were affected in this earthquake area than in Aceh and Nias after the earthquake‐tsunami disasters of 26 December 2004 and 28 March 2005 combined [ United Nations , 2006].
