Applied Risk & Resilience Labs

Dry Reservoirs, Dark Cities

Can the size of Lake Kariba in satellite images predict Zambia’s power cuts months ahead?

Undersized Culverts

Which culverts will wash out with tomorrow's storm?

Burn-Scar Half-Life

How many years after a California wildfire do the roads below the burn scar stay at risk of debris flows?

Embankment Dams

Can remote sensing show us where road structures block natural flood drainage during prolonged regional disasters?

Dry Wells

Which hand pumps in East Africa are likely to fail before the next dry season?

Dark Floods

How accurately can flood history and terrain data pinpoint electrical substations at risk of shutting down?

Roads Beyond Reach

Can remote sensing spot earthquake-damaged roads fast enough to reach towns cut off from emergency care?

Landslide Dams

How quickly can remote sensing detect landslide dams in mountain valleys before they burst and flood downstream towns?

All AR²L labs are guided by our data governance policy to ensure ethical and responsible use of data.
