dc.description.abstractDrought is a complex phenomenon that affects the development and use of the country’s water resources. Characterization through indices is critical in planning, management, and decision-making to mitigate the effects of drought, mainly when these are implemented in online platforms for monitoring, warning, and tracking the phenomenon. These tools serve as a basis for implementing a set of measures focused on the short, medium, and long term, oriented to different audiences, and with differentiation of procedures and entities involved depending on the case. This work proposes the technical basis for elaborating preventive drought monitoring in Chile through a visualization platform. Based on a comparative analysis of international tools and the results of a consultation with experts, the relevant characteristics of a system for drought monitoring, follow-up, and management based on standardized drought indexes are analyzed. It is concluded that such a platform should consider multiple drought indices with different levels of severity for their classification. These indices should be automatically calculated using as much information as possible, both from national and international sources, from in-situ gauges as well as from satellite and remote sensing products, and even obtained from modeling. On the other hand, the visualization should be simple, straightforward, and flexible, and the information delivered should provide information on the manifestation of drought in the territory and its short-term forecast.
