New Landslide Reporting Tool Uses Social Media and AI

by Deepa Padmanaban 1 September 20221 September 2022

The tool extracts landslide information in real time, which could advance landslide research as well as disaster response.

A copper mine delves deep into the orange rock of an Arizona desert. More than a dozen even steps have been excavated leading down to a roughly circular depression in the ground. Some of the steps have patches of oxidized copper, a blue-green color. A smooth path large enough for heavy machinery spirals down into the bottom of the mine.
