GRMA geological hazard report for Costa Rica

The report evaluates current datasets and models related to landslides, volcanic hazards, and seismic hazards, identifying the most suitable probabilistic models for Costa Rica’s context. It emphasizes the need to harmonize and update these resources using higher-resolution local data.

The report highlights the implementation of a training module on geological hazards and risk modelling, engaging Costa Rican professionals through virtual courses and applied exercises focused on landslides, volcanoes, and earthquakes. This deliverable establishes a solid analytical foundation for the next stages of GRMA’s support to Costa Rica, reinforcing the country’s capacity to model, assess, and manage geological risks.
