Landslide-prone Nepal tests AI-powered warning system

Bina Tamang, a teacher in Nepal, helps test an AI-powered warning system for landslides that predicts risks using various data sources, according to developers at the University of Melbourne.
Landslides caused over 300 deaths last year, accounting for 70 percent of monsoon-related deaths in Nepal, government data reveals.
The system is being piloted in Kimtang and Jyotinagar and aims to create a landslide risk map for better decision-making and evacuation plans.
Experts emphasize that advanced technology is crucial for Nepal to reduce deaths caused by monsoon landslides and climate hazards.
