39 meeting points across 8 districts and townships, linked to eight published stream names: the area where at-risk communities should head when a red alert is issued, per the published definition. Four records carry no point description and two also omit the stream name; they are retained with those gaps. Records publish no dates or reuse license. This is planning reference: it does not confirm that a point remains enabled, has capacity or is safe during an emergency. Always follow current DAGRD and relief-agency instructions.

101 evacuation routes: published paths to move residents toward meeting points in flood or torrent-flow risk areas. Records publish no dates or reuse license. Only 22 of the 35 point references match the point inventory verbatim, so the layers are never joined automatically. These are reference traces, not navigation: verify routes on the ground and follow current relief-agency instructions.

11 early-warning sirens installed by SIATA with the community after phase 2 of early-warning-system rollout, to announce minor or major flood surges. Each point retains SIATA name, sub-basin, district and neighborhood; sub-basin names are retained verbatim, with variants such as “La Picacha” and “Quebrada La Picacha”. Records publish no dates or reuse license. Reference locations: they do not confirm sound coverage, current operation or a live alert. During an alert, follow relief-agency instructions.

13 level sensors installed and monitored by SIATA on streams with early-warning systems, measuring water depth to anticipate flood surges. SIATA name, sub-basin, district and neighborhood are retained with normalized whitespace; two names keep concatenated codes and one sub-basin repeats its name, as published by the service. Records publish no dates or reuse license. Instrument locations, not live readings: current levels are available under River and stream levels. During a flood surge, follow relief-agency instructions.
