Web application with use of geoinformatics (webGIS) for the management of natural disasters and bounding of risk zones on Santorini island
Summary:
The aim of this thesis is to record and study natural hazards of Santorini,
which are responsible for the present geomorphology of the island complex.
Furthermore highlight areas of increased risk. A review of volcanic and
tectonic evolution that led to the existing geology - geomorphology of
Santorini is presented. Natural hazards of occurring earthquakes, volcanic
eruptions, landslides, tsunamis, floods and coastal erosion are examined. Areas
of increased risk are highlighted and historical events are mapped. Services of
layers that have produced are consumed through a web mapping application. This
application is suitable for anyone who want to acquire useful and updated
information about Santorini (e.g. tourists who will visit Santorini) in order
to provide them with. Open source software used in development of current web
mapping application. Last mitigation solutions of existing risk have proposed.
