An insightful interview with Professor Tina Comes on the role of responsible AI in disaster management. What stands out is the emphasis on AI not as a replacement for human decision-making, but as a tool that must be guided by transparency, accountability, and ethical oversight. scadv.eu/wNzWJeh
Uniform crisis interventions fail on spatial equity.
Our ABM shows that uniform crisis policies shift risk from urban cores to residential areas, creating maladaptation patterns that we track with our Urban Adaptation Index.

🧠 What counts as "extreme" heat? Is it a policy threshold, or the moment a resident can't breathe safely?
At UrbanAIR WP5, we’re bridging the gap between hazard simulation and lived experience in Barcelona & Antwerp. 🧵 (1/3)

Fully agree - even though the reality is very different.
And besides the models, we also need to look at who owns and maintains the data.
How do we embed Responsible AI into the chaos of disaster response? 🌪️🤖
Our new IEEE paper proposes a roadmap mapping principles (Equity, Privacy, Explainability) to every stage of the Crisis Information Management Cycle (Collect-Analyse-Share -Decide)

#AI for #CrisisManagement depends on data. For Europe, this implies the need for European #DataPreparedness and clear standards, benchmarks and sandboxes to ensure #TechSovereignty.
Thanks to the 🌟 Working Group 🌟 and all experts who contributed.

How to ensure that our #infrastructures are #resilient to a changing #climate? Thx to the @lmumuenchen.bsky.social #iCARE2025 community 4 discussions across #energy, #transport, #social, #ecological systems & hazards. @brkommunikation.bsky.social: www.ardmediathek.de/video/br24/k...

#Methods Matter. Our new @nature.com Scientific Reports paper shows that for Burkina Faso, two of the most common social #vulnerability methods (INFORM and SoVI) dramatically differ - despite the *same* data set: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

How can we prepare for extreme #crises? By bringing together infrastructure providers and emergency services and mapping out physical, informational and coordination dependencies. Our #AGILE stress test for @gemeenterotterdam.bsky.social and VRR in full swing @tpmtudelft.bsky.social
Super happy that we received more than 250 abstracts for our intl conference on #resilient #systems in March 2026 in Delft!!
Shout out to all the authors, the great track chairs and organising team @emergencity.de 4TU.Resilience and ETH.
How to design #AI for crowd management that is #trustworthy, respects #privacy, and complies with the #AIAct? Thanks to the #AICompass team for the discussions at @rug.nl! @gemeenterotterdam.bsky.social @gemeentedenhaag.bsky.social @politieopsenint.bsky.social @tpmtudelft.bsky.social #academicsky
Great workshop on #AI for #DRM organised by DG ECHO in Brussels - from #digitalTwins like @destinationearth.bsky.social to use of LLMs. @urbanair.bsky.social

Reflections from our @urbanair.bsky.social workshop: DigitalTwins are increasingly powerful, but more work is needed to translate even the most granular air pollution and climate models into actionable tools addressing urban dilemmas. Thanks for the inspiring discussions @tpmtudelft.bsky.social
How do we manage #HighImpact #LowProbability events? In the @horizoneu.bsky.social AGILE project, we address these questions. Check out our resources on cascading failures via www.project-agile.eu. And kudos to the team for completing successfully the first review cycle! @tpmtudelft.bsky.social
#CfP Working on climate-proofing energy systems, adaptive mobility, securing water resources or ensuring resilient food supply chains? Submit your #abstract by May 30 to join our #Infrastructure #Resilience conference at @lmumuenchen.bsky.social in October www.geo.lmu.de/geographie/d... #AcademicSky

Societal #transitions require #interdisciplinary #research. Therefore excited to give a keynote at the 'Building Models of Change' Conference at @zif-bielefeld.bsky.social. I will discuss the temporality and values of #resilience models and AI.

UrbanAIR, a #HorizonEurope project, integrates physics-based & behavioural modelling with AI-driven digital twins to help European cities make real-time climate decisions to combat extreme heat & air pollution while promoting urban resilience. 🌍

Met ontsteltenis hebben wij kennis genomen van het ontslag van 46 collega’s aan de Universiteit Twente. Wij leven met hen mee. De landelijke bezuinigingen hebben catastrofale gevolgen voor universiteiten die al kampen met tekorten door krimp en inflatie. #WOinActie
Third day of #Back2Future starts with @tinacomes.bsky.social on Decision-centered A.I.
My favourite discovery during the journey: Swiss trains have white table cloths on the restaurant tables; coffee comes in actual cups with an actual spoon. #smallluxuries
Monday thought:
How to design #AI for better #crowd #crisis management?
Look behind the scenes to understand #information sharing and #sensemaking at @feyenoord.bsky.social with our great #AIcompass project team. Thanks for having us!! Bonus: we won 3-0.
