CAPRA
A GIS-based tool freely available is CAPRA (www.ecapra.org) developed by Central American Coordination Centre for Disaster Prevention (CEPREDENAC), in collaboration with Central American Governments, the United Nation's International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (ISDR), the Inter-American Development Bank and theWorld Bank. The software allows a probabilistic analysis of earthquakes, hurricanes, volcanic activity, floods, tsunamis, landslides and related losses in the Central America. Moreover, it allows the comparison of different hazards considering also the secondary hazards arising from earthquakes, rainfall and hurricanes (i.e. tsunami, landslides and floods) (Bernal, 2010).
