This guide illustrates the main features of the data visualization system implemented to make use of the available filters and views through optimal navigation and use. It includes an explanation of the methodology used to develop the tool for the COVID-19 vulnerability perception, including the selection of analyzed sectors. It identifies the categories to rate the perception of the risk impact in four components (i.e., supply, demand, financial and proprietary, and systemic and regulatory) and interprets the ranges of the severity levels of the vulnerability index.
