Sabine applies geostatistical data integration methods to components of resilience analysis. Currently, her work focuses on assessing the regional damage through the use of multiple data sources that are made rapidly available after an earthquake. Sabine has also been involved with the development and validation of remote sensing based data sources on building damage.
Topics of interest:
- Geostatistical analysis for risk and resilience
- Data analytics for development in data-poor regions
- Post-earthquake recovery policies
- ‘Supporting Equitable Disaster Recovery Through Mapping,’ funded by the World Bank and Global Partnership for Sustainable Development Data. through the Innovation Fund.
- ‘Spatial Integration of Post-Disaster Data for Physical Impact Estimation‘, supported by the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program.
