Spatiotemporal geohazard mapping was achieved by processing 15,000+ online news articles from Türkiye (1997–2023) using web scraping, NLP, and geolocation. As a result 13,940 mapped events floods, wildfires, landslides, and sinkholes. A scalable, open-source approach for data-scarce regions. Link👇

Strong earthquakes in mountain landscapes can trigger widespread slope failures, initiating chains of multiple hydro-geomorphic hazards. These chains can amplify the geohazards and last many years following strong earthquakes. nature.com/articles/s43...
