- 13.7.2 Crisis Population Displacement Maps — Generating near-real-time maps of population movement during conflict, flood, earthquake or famine events by fusing satellite imagery, RF signal density and nighttime light data.
- 13.7.3 Damage Assessment Atlases — Systematically mapping structural damage after earthquakes, floods, conflicts or industrial disasters using multi-source satellite imagery fused into georeferenced, version-controlled damage atlases.
- 13.7.4 Logistics Cluster Mapping — Mapping road networks, storage facilities, border crossings and last-mile access routes to coordinate humanitarian supply chains in active crisis zones.
- 13.7.5 Anticipatory Action Triggers — Using satellite-derived flood inundation, drought indices and storm-track data to automatically release pre-positioned humanitarian aid before a disaster peaks.
