01
Integrated visualisation
Real-time satellite and weather feeds; live regional hazard inventories.
Innovations
Platforms that turn
data into decisions
On top of the sensor network, Amrita built regional warning platforms, an indigenous AI for climate risk, and apps that put communities in the loop.
Amrita Kavach
Dynamic regional
early-warning platform
Powered by artificial intelligence, social data mining, geoinformatics and satellite products.
02
Dynamic risk mapping
Automated susceptibility analysis; dynamic risk heatmaps.
03
Hazard trigger tracking
Real-time rainfall thresholds; analysis of antecedent conditions.
04
Operational decision support
Preparedness and routing tools; response and evacuation analysis.

AmritaKripa
An indigenous AI platform
for climate risk intelligence
Integrating GLOF, landslide, flood and cyclone signals into a single decision-support framework.
Rainfall triggers
Satellite + gauge fusion
GPM IMERG and rain-gauge fusion; multiple thresholds.
Landslide
Site & regional thresholds
Site-specific and regional rainfall thresholds.
GLOF
Glacial lakes
Glacial-lake monitoring, bathymetry and velocity profiling.
Flooding
Hydrological forecasts
Hydrological models and 7-day ensemble forecasts.
Cyclone-induced
Cyclone, rain, terrain
Cyclone, rainfall and terrain coupling for slope stability.
Why it matters
One coherent warning
Cascading hazards rarely arrive alone. A unified framework couples signals across domains, sharpens thresholds and turns a sequence of events into a single warning.
Real-time risk dashboard · Karnataka
Risk, district by district
An operational ArcGIS dashboard developed jointly with the Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre. It shows risk evolving at sub-district scale, alongside automated bulletins, evacuation protocols and risk communication.
Scientific outputs become actionable inputs for the District Magistrate and emergency response teams.
Apps & citizen science
Communities as
part of the network
Landslide Tracker App
Reports from the ground
A multi-level app for spatio-temporal crowd-sourced landslide reporting that complements sensor data.
Amrita Kripa app
Coordinating rescue at scale
Links survivors, relief camps, rescue teams, NGOs, volunteers and administrators. In the 2018 Kerala floods, the worst in 100 years, it ran in parallel with the wireless landslide-detection network and the 24×7 Compassionate Kerala Call Centre.

Social media in risk assessment
Listening to
what people post
Within the LANDSLIP consortium, Amrita leads work on bringing social media data into multi-hazard risk assessment, and on improving forecast reliability for hydrologically controlled landslides.
