In places where data on critical infrastructure is hard to access, street-level imagery offers a low-cost and verifiable alternative. By building on tools like Mapillary, we explore how visual cues, like school signs or facility names, can support disaster resilience through open, community-led data collection.

UPRI-NOAH Center has been selected as one of the four winners of the PREP Innovation Challenge by WFP and USAID. Our Impact-Based Flood Forecasting project, developed in partnership with Weather Manila, integrates scientific data with community flood reports to provide advanced flood warnings and strengthen disaster resilience in vulnerable communities.
