The score is a weighted blend of six sub-scores (disease 18%, conflict 22%, natural disasters 16%, crime 16%, civil unrest 14%, infrastructure 14%) plus a 20% blend of major foreign-ministry advisories. The methodology page documents the exact algorithm and the changelog tracks every weighting change. Score range is 0 to 100; 100 means very low risk, 0 means extreme risk.
