| description | Risk Management Systems are a valuable tool for estimating the potential losses of natural events, assessing risk reduction strategies, and increasing the resilience of critical infrastructure. The paper discusses the development of SIGeR-RV, a tool for Risk Management of road networks exposed to multi-hazards developed in Chile. The tool was implemented on a web-based Geographic Information System platform. It is able to display hazard maps, calculate risk levels, prioritize mitigation strategies, estimate direct and indirect losses, and assess the social vulnerability of communities exposed to natural hazards. The article includes an application of SIGeR-RV in a road network exposed to the lahar flows of Villarrica volcano in the south of Chile. |
