		The PerilAUS CD-ROM is the result of a 3 year project funded by the Insurance Foundation, which is a division of the Insurance Council of Australia.
		PerilAUS combines a searchable database of natural perils in Australia with mapping software in a simple, easy-to-use program with a user-friendly interface.
		PerilAUS features the ability to create summaries for a postcode, ICA Zone or state from the map simply by clicking on the area.

	The bull of Phalaris
		This Phalaris burned to death Perilaus, the well-known Attic worker in bronze, in the brazen bull.
		Perilaus had fashioned in bronze the contrivance of the bull, making small sounding pipes in the nostrils and fitting a door for an opening in the bull's side and this bull he brings as a present to Phalaris.
		And as soon as Perilaus had crept in, to give an example, so he thought, of the sound of the pipes, Phalaris closes up the bull and heaps fire under it.

	Risk Frontiers
		Since 1999 insurers and others have been using Risk Frontiers' PerilAUS software to determine the relative risk posed by natural perils in Australia across a range of spatial levels; usually Postcode, Local Government Area or CRESTA zone.
		While natural hazard risk ratings at these scales are useful and widely used, some applications require more spatially-explicit risk ratings.
		The report is made available on the express understanding that the authors, Macquarie Research Limited, their employees and agents shall not be liable for any loss (including legal costs and expenses) or liability incurred or suffered by any recipient of this report acting or purporting to act in reliance on the contents of the report.

		The Sicyonians especially lost many, and, among the rest, Perilaus their general.

		In 1999 Macquarie University’s NHRC completed production of PerilAUS I – a database focussed on natural perils including tropical cyclones, floods, bushfires, wind gusts, hail falls, tornadoes and landslides.
		As indicated in Figure 3.8, the built environment is more vulnerable to the impact of some perils than it is to others.
		The latest scheme (PerilAUS II) uses these data to develop relative risk ratings for each of the nine natural perils for each of the 2,573 postcodes in Australia.
