New Tech Predicts Building Collapses & Landslides 2 Weeks in Advance This is a global example of technology helping humanity and alerting them of impending danger.  Australian researchers at the University of Melbourne have just developed breakthrough software.  It predicts when a mudslide could occur, a dam collapse, a foundation move or a building crack and collapse.  The software can make the forecast up to 2 weeks in advance. Based on Applied Mathematics, Algorithms & Big Data Analytics The software turns algorithms and big data into risk assessment and management action.  It spots the warning signs of imminent danger. And it does so at the microstructure level.  The early warning sign alerts include motion patterns that change over time and become synchronized. Forecasts of Collapse In Time to Make a Difference The scientists' model decodes the data on movement and turns it into a network.  That allows the scientists to identify hidd...
