MIT scientists have developed a method that uses generative AI combined with a physics-based flood model to create satellite images depicting potential post-hurricane flooding. This method visually forecasts what regions might look like after severe storms, aiding residents in deciding whether to evacuate. As a test, the method was applied to Houston, generating realistic images of potential flooding from a storm like Hurricane Harvey. These AI-enhanced images proved more accurate than those made without the physics model, which erroneously depicted flooding in impossible areas.
Named the "Earth Intelligence Engine, " this technique aims to enhance public preparedness by offering a more tangible visualization compared to traditional color-coded maps. The system integrates generative adversarial networks (GANs) for realistic image creation and emphasizes the importance of trustworthy data in risk-sensitive scenarios. Testing showed GANs alone could produce "hallucinations" or errors, leading to the integration of physics-based models to improve reliability. This research, published in IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, illustrates a promising intersection of AI and physics for disaster readiness, with support from various institutions including NASA and Google Cloud.
