Researchers Dr. Shunichi Koshimura (Japan) and Dr. Miguel Estrada (Peru), leaders of the tsunami research group, carried out a technical visit to the Directorate of Hydrography and Navigation (DHN), accompanied by young researchers from CISMID and representatives of JICA.
During the visit, they presented progress in the evaluation of tsunami hazard, exposure, and risk. The importance of high-resolution bathymetry and topography was emphasized as essential for improving the accuracy of tsunami simulation scenarios.
DHN plays a strategic role in this collaborative effort, working jointly on scientific research initiatives aimed at strengthening disaster risk management in the country.
