Snow disasters are severe natural hazards in Jilin Province, China. This research formulated a holistic risk assessment framework which integrates the factors of hazardousness, sensitivity, vulnerability, and disaster prevention and mitigation capacity. Using multi-source data and Geographic Information System (GIS), we evaluated snow disaster risks through 15 selected indicators weighted by the entropy method. Results show high-risk areas primarily concentrated in southeastern mountainous regions, including Jingyu, Fusong, Changbai, and Linjiang. Disaster sensitivity decreases from southeast to northwest, while high-vulnerability zones appear in central urban areas like Changchun. The comprehensive risk generally declines from the southeastern mountains to the northwestern plains. This assessment model effectively reflects snow disaster formation mechanisms and spatial patterns, providing scientific support for disaster prevention and emergency management in Jilin Province.
