The evaluation area of the data set is the central urban area of Yangon deepwater port. The data set is based on the extreme precipitation disaster risk spatial distribution data set (2019) and its evaluation index system. The data set considers both precipitation risk and terrain risk. Among them, precipitation risk index includes extreme precipitation intensity index and extreme precipitation frequency index, both of which are obtained from GPM precipitation data. Terrain risk mainly considers elevation index. Finally, the risk assessment results of extreme precipitation disaster are obtained. The probability and intensity of extreme precipitation disaster in high risk area are higher than those in low risk area.
