Funded Activity Summary

Imaging, analysing and forecasting Australian hazards with satellites. This project aims to improve Australia’s ability to anticipate geophysical hazards. It will generate a new national capability in the use of satellite radar imagery to monitor and manage geohazards, benefiting all communities. By producing high-resolution maps of ground displacements, the project will assess the controls upon where and why these events occur, and whether they exhibit precursory behaviour. This is the first step towards accurate hazard forecasting and in building Australia's capability for near-real-time geophysical hazard monitoring on a national scale. The outputs will impact upon future recommendations for national earthquake and landslide monitoring and deliver new tools to underpin regulation of resource extraction and inform construction codes.
