Daniel HölblingLandslide information from Earth observation to support humanitarian aid
Dr Daniel Hölbling and his team transform Earth observation data into actionable landslide information for humanitarian decision-making. Find out more here. Landslides are becoming an increasingly frequent and destructive natural hazard as climate change drives more intense rainfall events and contributes to a rise in extreme weather globally. Often triggered by heavy precipitation, earthquakes, or other environmental or human factors, landslides can devastate communities by destroying homes, blocking transport routes, and cutting off access to essential services such as healthcare and clean water.
