SAFETY is a two years’ research project funded under the ECHO (European Commission's Humanitarian aid and Civil Protection department call “Prevention and preparedness projects in Civil Protection and marine pollution”, and it started 1 January 2016. The mission of the project is to improve the efforts in detecting and mapping geohazards (i.e. landslides and subsidence), by assessing their activity and evaluating their impact on built‐up areas and infrastructures’ networks. SAFETY will enhance ground deformation risk prevention and mitigation efforts in highly vulnerable geographic and geologic regions. The outcomes of the project will provide Civil Protection Authorities (CPA) with the capability of periodically evaluating and assessing the potential impact of geohazards on the selected sites.
