Overview

Geospatial analysis reveals tsunami exposure, indicating urban growth may increase coastal risk in Lima-Callao.

Key Points

  • Analysis shows significant tsunami exposure among populations and critical buildings along the coast, highlighting vulnerabilities.
  • Using numerical simulation and geospatial methods, results delineate inundation areas based on seismic scenarios.
  • This research integrates data from geospatial databases and census to understand tsunami impacts on urban growth and risk management.
  • Findings support coastal planning efforts, suggesting proactive measures to mitigate tsunami hazards are essential.
