DESCRIPTION
Caribbean & Central America (v. 2018) is part of GEM's Global Earthquake Hazard and Risk Maps released to the public in December 2018. As part of the mosaic, the seismic hazard, exposure and vulnerability models employed in the calculations were either provided by national institutions, or developed within the scope of regional programs, bilateral collaborations, or by GEM.
Hazard
This model covering the Central America and the Caribbean region (CCA) was developed in the framework of the CCARA project (CCARA project) a GEM collaboration project funded by USAID.
