This $257,914 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), will develop 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 include:

  1. Developing four new integrated databases from sources like social media and cell-phone mobility data to support multidisciplinary research on human dynamics and resilience.

  2. Constructing advanced visualization and analytical tools, such as maps, statistics, and dynamic modeling and simulations, to facilitate exploratory and in-depth research by researchers, practitioners, and the public.

  3. Implementing training and feedback modules to engage the research community and public in using the infrastructure to gain new knowledge on the relationship between human mobility and resilience.

  4. Conducting three case studies demonstrating how the HNDS-I infrastructure can lead to new insights on disaster resilience.

This collaborative, multidisciplinary project is being led by Texas A&M University, in partnership with Louisiana State University, University of South Florida, and Saint Louis University.
