The kick-off meeting has officially started. Stay tuned!
EOXPOSURE
An H2020 projectOUR GOAL
The goal of the EOxposure project is to build tools to quantify the exposure of population and economic assets to multiple risks using novel information layers from current and future Earth Observation (EO) missions, as well as the growing sensor web on the ground.
Work Packages
Tools for Mapping Human Exposure to Risky Environmental conditions by means of Ground and Earth Observation Data
Housing condition mapping
To develop a tool for Housing Condition Mapping (HOCOM), based on open source software and able to exploit data from multiple EO sources, airborne/UAV platform and ancillary economic/social data sets.

Disease spread proxies
To develop a tool to extract maps of disease spread proxies (DISESP), based on open source software and able to exploit data from socio/economic data sets and geospatial information, assisted by additional information from multiple EO source, airborne/UAV platforms and ground sensors.

Physical proxies to security threats
To develop a tool to extract maps of physical quantities (PHYMAP) by combining and exploiting at the most accurate spatial scale observations by multiple sources, including spaceborne/airborne/UAV platforms.

Latest News
An open window on the project and what is happening
Today the EOXPOSURE coordinator, Fabio Dell’Acqua, is in Brussels to attend the H2020 RISE coordinators’ day, an initiative to inform coordinators of RISE project about how to manage the project, relationships with REA, and how to report and communicate about the projects.
We are set to develop new tools to quantify the exposure of population and economic assets to multiple risks. We are looking forward to exciting results with this new challenge beginning now!
