Hotspot buildings

Hotspot buildings are essential nodes in critical infrastructures. Examples are power stations, communication and data hubs, water treatment plants, logistic centres of food distribution, nodes in transportation networks, hospitals, and firefighting stations.

Questions: Are you retrofitting an e xisting hotspot? Does the area around hotspot need flood protection? Does the hotspot contain fluid storage with considerable weight? Does the hotspot consist of i nstallations i nstead of buildings? Is there a possibility for or availability of permanent water? Does the ground floor need to contain vital functions? Is space around the hotspot permanently available? Is space around the hotspot available i n case of flooding? Is vehicle access vital during flood? Hotspot with permanent rail connection above ground l evel? Is the hotspot situated underground?
ANSWER: 0 = no 1 = yes
