Hazard models that show where it can reach.

We simulate how floods, glacial lake outbursts, landslides, heat and drought can affect an area. You get mapped results that show extent, severity and likely timing for planning and early warning.

What the service covers

Each hazard needs its own method. We choose the model according to the question, the available data and the level of detail your decision requires.

Riverine flood modeling

Hydrology and hydraulic modeling for river systems and floodplains.

Flash and urban flooding

Rapid flood simulation for steep catchments and dense urban areas.

GLOF and dam break

Simulation of sudden releases from glacial lakes and water structures.

Landslide and slope hazards

Terrain analysis that identifies unstable slopes and likely runout paths.

Heat and drought

Modeling of slow-onset hazards and their spatial patterns.

Multi-hazard analysis

A combined view of hazards that overlap or trigger each other.

How we deliver a hazard model

Five stages, from defining the event to outputs your team can use and maintain.

Define events

We set the hazard, study area, return periods and decisions.

Modeling plan

Prepare data

We process terrain, land cover, rainfall, flow and past event records.

Input datasets

Build the model

We configure the method and test sensitivity to key inputs.

Configured model

Calibrate and validate

We compare results with past events and observations where available.

Validation report

Map and hand over

We publish hazard layers and document assumptions.

Hazard modeling: your questions

Tell us the problem and the area. We will suggest the simplest way to solve it.

Floods, flash floods, GLOFs, landslides, heat and drought. We can also combine them in a multi-hazard study.

A hazard map shows what could happen and where. A risk map also includes the people and assets exposed and how vulnerable they are. See scenario-based impact assessment.

Any surveys, gauge records, drainage plans and past event reports help. We can fill gaps with satellite and open data, and we state how the gaps affect results.

We compare results with past flood extents, satellite observations, gauge records or field evidence. Where records are limited, we state that clearly.

Yes. Scenario results can define trigger levels and warning zones, and they can connect to live data. See climate risk and early warning.

Yes. We can use climate projections to create future rainfall, temperature or flood scenarios.
