Figure 2

Map images used in the survey (Table 1 , Questions 6–13) showing three different probabilistic hazard data classification styles: A) gradational shaded, B) binned, and C) isarithmic. Blue outline shows the urban area of Whakatane for reference purposes here only. In the survey, Whakatane and other areas appeared outlined in grey with grey striped fill underneath the transparent hazard overlay (not clearly visible at reduced size printed here). Seventeen urban areas, main highways, large lakes, and a greyscale digital elevation model underlie the transparent hazard layer as background features. Black triangle represents the location of Tarawera volcano. Maps were viewed at 800 × 710 pixels.
