Great morning start, today, when I discovered this message on my whiteboard, written by two students from ENSG-Geomatique (France) happy of their internship at the AfricaMuseum. Thank YOU, guys! It was a pleasure to welcome you.

Happy Earth Day to everyone!

The GeoRiskA team takes advantage of this international day dedicated to our planet Earth to share some examples of scientific activities on geohazards and disaster risks.

ESA Sentinel-1 SAR amplitude change image highlighting the current flood (cyan colours) in Kinshasa, D.R.Congo. The extent within the city is probably much larger, as the backscattering of the buildings in densely urbanised areas tends to hide floods.

Animation showing a north-south rupture in the ground west of the Irrawaddy River, Mandalay, Myanmar, after a 7.7-magnitude earthquake struck on 28 March.

In response to the disaster, #CopernicusEMS and the #DisastersCharter have been activated to provide satellite imagery to help relief efforts.

Last Tuesday, MSc students in Geography of @vubrussel.bsky.social and @kuleuvenuniversity.bsky.social came to the #AfricaMuseum to learn more about photogrammetry. The programme included a guest lecture by @adille.bsky.social on remote sensing of slow-moving landslides and a UAV demonstration

What a speech!
