Census of historical centres exposed to seismic risk
Italy has an invaluable cultural heritage, made of our historic centers. Still today, it is not possible to quantify its consistency and quality. This led the Civil Protection Department to create with the Ministry for Cultural Heritage and Activities, a web application "Centri Storici e Rischio Sismico - Csrs" (Historical Centres and Seismic Risk - CSR) to share with all levels of government in the area.
Web application
The Csrs Historical Centers and Seismic Risk web page was created as a shared investigative tool to complete and update through a national network of information exchange between different levels of territorial government (Civil Protection Department, Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities, Regions, Provinces, Local Authorities), the database "Atlas of historical centers exposed to seismic risk". The database is designed to support a model of analysis regarding the risk of "cultural interest" loss for historical centers exposed to earthquakes.
The census of historic centers exposed to risk draws on the results of collaborative activities provided for in the Agreement for the establishment, management, and development of databases of common interest for the purpose of assessing risks in the territory, signed on November 21, 2013.
