Various tools for collecting, manipulating and analyzing data and then modeling processes have already been developed by the research group, and they have been applied to real cases in different scale of analysis.

Some projects carried out

Hazard, risk and multi-risk quantitative assessment techniques have been developed and tested in various environments, which has allowed us to demonstrate their effectiveness and resolutive power on a local and regional scale.
