The project aims to enhance structural assessments, using AI-driven 2D and 3D imaging technology for real-time analysis of structural vulnerability and damage risk.

**Key areas of focus include:**

* **Digital Technologies:** Developing a framework for real-time data collection on building damage with rapid processing of 2D images during emergency phases.
* **Resilient Construction**: Creating methods for assessing seismic vulnerability and establishing a harmonised database of seismic risk from diverse data sources.
* **Post-Disaster Waste Management**: Offering solutions to convert demolition waste into usable materials for reconstruction, aiding environmental protection and recovery efforts.

Partnering organisations from South Korea, T&amp;uuml;rkiye, and the UK bring a wealth of expertise, with each country leading a technical work package. Aralia coordinates the project, with collaborative networking to ensure strong social impact and commercial success. The final product will be a QGIS-based framework with Postgres integration, interfacing with public and private GIS resources.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
