Abstract

Baja California Risk Atlas hosted in ArcGIS online
Track: Disaster and Emergency Management
Authors: Ena Gamez, Jessica Salas

GIS was a key tool for all hazard assessment of our atlas, where huge amounts of geo-referenced data need to be handled to produce results that are best understood through maps and graphic presentations. We used ArcGIS online and their base maps with the distribution of natural hazards to facilitate the understanding of the close correlation between development and vulnerability to natural hazards in the State, we want to show all the hazards evaluated in this atlas for the emergency response.
