This $170,942 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075 - Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) supports the development of a national cyberinfrastructure called the Human Dynamics and Resilience Infrastructure (HNDS-I) to advance disaster resilience research. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year grant include:
-
Creating four new integrated databases containing nationwide data from sources like social media and cell phone mobility data to support resilience research.
-
Constructing visualization and analytical tools such as maps, statistics, and dynamic modeling/simulation to facilitate both exploratory and in-depth resilience studies.
-
Implementing a training and feedback module to engage researchers, practitioners, and the public in exploring and analyzing the infrastructure's data and tools.
-
Conducting three case studies demonstrating how the HNDS-I infrastructure can lead to new insights about the relationship between human mobility and community resilience.
This multidisciplinary project is a collaboration between investigators at four universities - Louisiana State University, University of South Florida, Texas A&M University, and the prime awardee Saint Louis University.
