Geospatial Risk Communication and Visualization of Natural Hazards Using Augmented Reality Constructs
Abstract GIS-based maps are currently the norm for risk visualization and communication of natural hazards. With advances in geospatial visualization and spatial interface technologies, interactive and dynamic risk visualization is now possible. Augmented reality adds another dimension to realistic visualization of natural hazards like floods and volcanic flows which can be achieved through spatial risk visualization and communication simulations in virtual reality mode. Communicating the knowledge to the most vulnerable communities which are residing in the risk zones is very useful for local stakeholders as they are mostly needful of the adaptation strategies. The current article experiments the use of an Augmented Reality Construct for developing a risk visualization interface, which delivers spatially aware geovisualization simulations. We propose the Augmented Reality Sandbox for educating and engaging the local community through simulated visualization of hazard risk and vulnerability with an aim to achieve holistic learning. This construct has a great potential for developing interactive and location-aware three-dimensional real-world simulations and visualization. We suggest that such applications be more prevalently used as we found it to be more effective than static 3D visualization constructs like hazard maps in communicating the risk potential from natural hazards like floods and volcanic lava flows.
