The methodology involves dividing La Provincia Constitutional del Callao into 3 delimited sectors to which when making the superposition of layers of information for seismic microzoning, it was obtained that of the 757 IE exposed, 69% are located in Zone II. dense and 9% located in zones type IV and V unstable slopes with steep slopes and deposits of debris and / or waste respectively. For the analysis against Tsunamis, it was obtained that of the 149 IE located in the flood zone, 32% would be flooded due to an earthquake of 8.5 Mv and 68% consequence to an earthquake of intensity 9.0 Mv.
