From Dry Slopes to Disaster Zones: Why Landslide Modeling Needs a Rain Check

When do landslides actually happen? Not when the slope is steep—but when it’s steep, saturated, and pushed past its tipping point. And yet: most landslide models in use today ignore that final push. They tell us where landslides might occur based on slope and soil—but not when. And that omission is what leaves so many […]

What Makes a Good Hazard Model for Critical Infrastructure Operations? 6 Questions to Ask 

Hazard models are everywhere, from FEMA flood maps to state landslide inventories to national wildfire indices. But not all models are created equal. For infrastructure operators (be it pipelines, utilities, transportation, renewables and beyond), integrity engineers, and damage prevention teams, these models directly influence decisions on where to deploy crews, how to prioritize integrity management […]

Introducing Terevue Geotech Module: Predictive Insight for Landslide Risk

Pipeline operators, asset managers, and environmental engineers are under growing pressure to monitor and manage geotechnical hazards like landslides. Dormant threats can awaken with a single downpour, and policies such as PHMSA CFR 192.613 and ADB-2022-01 are now clear: pipeline operators must move beyond reactive responses and demonstrate proactive, risk-based management before severe weather turns […]

How a Rain Event Validated Terevue’s Accuracy in Predicting Landslide Threats

One operator’s experience proved that Terevue can catch the risks no patrol or instrument might see—until it’s too late. The Challenge Pipeline operators face an uphill battle when managing assets in landslide-prone regions. With limited instrumentation like inclinometers, most rely on aerial patrols and historical data to detect potential threats. But with traditional methods, not […]

Harnessing Geospatial Data and Machine Learning to Protect Your Pipeline 

Pipelines face constant challenges from external, natural forces that can compromise safety and operational integrity. Geospatial data science has emerged as an innovative approach to better understanding, predicting, and mitigating these complex environmental risks. By leveraging advanced mapping technologies and sophisticated risk assessment tools, pipeline integrity engineers and operations managers can now anticipate potential threats […]
