In our latest video, Aimable Turahirwa of Rwandaโs ๐๐ข๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฒ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐ ๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐ฆ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐ง๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ (๐๐๐๐๐๐) ๐ท๐ผ explores how different sources of information ranging from satellite imagery and drone observations to rainfall, geological and land-use data can be brought together to improve landslide monitoring and early warning.
The challenge? Turning multiple, often fragmented sources of information into something that can support timely, risk-informed decisions on the ground.
๐ This is where EPOS can add another piece to the picture, providing access to multidisciplinary geoscientific resources that can complement local data and strengthen monitoring and analysis.
From observing a changing slope to getting information into the hands of decision-makers, this use case shows what it means to bridge the gap between science and action.

The EPOS Summer school was hosted at Espai Crร ter in Ajuntament d'Olot and supported by EPOS ON*, Ministry of Science and Innovation of Spain, Geociencias Barcelona del CSIC (GEO3BCN-CSIC), EPOS-ES, and Coordinaciรณn de EPOS Espaรฑa.
*The ๐๐๐๐ ๐ptimization and Evolutio๐ (๐๐๐๐ ๐๐) project is a Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Action focused on optimizing and evolving the European Plate Observing System (EPOS), which the pan-European research infrastructure for solid Earth science. The EPOS ON project develops interoperable research services, FAIR data access, advanced computational workflows, and multidisciplinary Earth observation capabilities while strengthening international collaboration, user engagement, early-career researcher participation, and links with the private sector. The EPOS ON project outcomes support geohazard research, earthquake, volcano and tsunami monitoring, climate and environmental studies, and evidence-based disaster risk management.
