- Abstract
A probabilistic earthquake risk assessment was developed for urban planning and emergency response activities in the landscape unit of 'Pla de Barcelona', Catalonia, Spain. This assessment was developed under an integral territorial management project framework to develop a pilot platform for territorial prediction (plates.cimne.com). Using state-of-the-art methodologies, risk results in different metrics were obtained after assessing the feasible losses on a high-resolution exposure database. Critical earthquake scenarios have been identified to provide emergency and territorial management information to the Department of Vice-presidency, Digital Policies, and territory; of the Generalitat of Catalonia., This research was funded by the Generalitat de Catalunya through the “Projecte de tecnologies digitals avançades (TDA) - Plataforma de Predicció Territorial (PIPLATES)”.
