Implantación de una aplicación móvil para PPGIS destinada a deslizamientos e integrada a una IDE

Abstract

A mobile application for citizen participation applied to Geographic Information Systems –GIS- has been created so that population can provide specific data on areas with landslides or susceptible to this phenomenon. With this information, researchers or decision makers can have updated and geo-located data from these areas. Based on information provided by the Secretariat of Risk Management -SGR- and the experience of the project staff, the profiles and contents of the survey implemented through the mobile application were defined. Later this application was used to get information in certain areas of the city of Cuenca in which studies of landslides were performed. The results of the information obtained can be visualized in the Spatial Data Infrastructure platform of the University of Cuenca –Ucuenca SDI-, in different formats. Additionally, the content of the mobile application was validated by the staff of the SGR.
