Geophysical consultancies and natural hazard monitoring solutions
Geophysical consultancy
GECO offers high value geophysical consultancies for the design, the development and the management of monitoring and early warning systems. We provide consultancy either on technical and scientific aspects of geophysical monitoring networks, as well as the choice of standard or customized softwares and algorithms (Python, C++) for data analysis, realtime monitoring and automatic alerting.
Natural hazard monitoring approach
GECO promotes 24/7, long-term monitoring of natural phenomena that may impact infrastructure and/or the population (e.g. volcanic eruptions, rock and snow avalanches, debris flows, landslides, glaciers, …). Long-term monitoring allows for the continuous study of the specific phenomenon, a necessary condition for developing effective and specific analysis techniques and alert criteria to mitigate the risk itself (predictive approach).
