MARTINEZ VIVEROS, Elvia. Inteligencia geoespacial para desastres sísmicos: investigaciones en CentroGeo. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2018, vol.80, n.spe, pp.71-94. ISSN 2594-0651.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iis.01882503p.2018.0.57774.

This article reviews three research projects at CentroGeo: the use of DInSAR to estimate the probable impact of an earthquake on soil subsidence in space-time; the use of the LIDAR system to analyze the relationship between the acceleration of seismic waves and the height of buildings and to estimate social vulnerability in small areas; and the development of geospatial platforms on the Web to support mapmaking by volunteers with valuable information for emergency management. Lastly, an Internet Public Information Service is proposed to bring the population key knowledge for decision making during the disaster cycle.
