CONCLUSIONS Jacqueline Rivera _ El Salvador
The environment ministry is developing a complete system for monitoring natural hazards. Proving their effectiveness The hazard monitoring center is the most complete in Central America. The improvement and expansion of remote sensing is going to allow a better response to natural events and reduce the impact. Jacqueline Rivera _ El Salvador
Data Data Data Availability Management Dissemination Integrated Open Source Tools Easier communication Investing in monitoring systems in El Salvador allows better response to the frequent natural disasters which is threatened the territory often. They are investments that are aimed at saving lives. Furthermore, strengthening the scientific area allows improvements in many areas of society. Jacqueline Rivera _ El Salvador
