The RiskKAN Network on Emergent Risks and Extreme Events of the Future Earth, IRDR, WCRP, and WWRP programs, is having a webinar on 26th of Sept, 13-15:00 CET/Berlin time. The webinar is titled “Integrating critical infrastructure and social vulnerability into spatial risk assessments“.

 

Hosted by the Working Group on Critical Infrastructure, it will be discussed how the topics of Critical Infrastructure and Social Vulnerability can be better connected in research – through the specific lens of spatial assessments, using Earth Observation. Prof. Fekete from the University of Applied Sciences in Cologne invited Prof. Hannes Taubenböck and Prof. Christian Geiß from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and our Earth Observation Research Cluster (EORC) to contribute presentations.
