WORKSHOP: TOOLS AND METHODS FOR POST DISASTER RECONNAISSANCE MISSIONS

The EPSRC sponsored LfE Project, running since 2018, aims at improving the understanding of earthquake impacts, response, and recovery through targeted data gathering in earthquake reconnaissance and recovery missions. A major objective of this project is to advance methods and tools to collect, interpret, exploit and disseminate this data. Our tools and methods have transitioned from physical field deployment to the support of hybrid or remote field missions, which might well become the "new-normal" practice.

​

Webinar Topics

• use of social media (typically accessed before the mission)

• reconnaissance tools (physical, electronics, data acquisition tools, used during missions)

• data storage, visualisation, and exploitation (typically during and after missions, and associated legacy issues)

Webinar Pre-Event Material
To maximise the time devoted to discussion during the webinar, the speakers have prepared 15 minutes videos that you can access on EPICentre YouTube Channel. We suggest that all participants look at these before the event. On the day there will be short 5 minutes presentations followed by Q&A and debate. Once you have registered please view the videos and get in touch by 12 October 2020, if you want to propose topic for the debate.
