Geohazards can be dangerous and costly, yet information on geohazards can be difficult if not impossible to obtain. PanGeo provides free access to geohazard information for many of the largest cities in Europe (see the Service Map for coverage). The information is provided in real-time from the servers of the 27 EU National Geological Surveys, via the PanGeo Portal.

PanGeo geohazard information is derived from integrations of:

• Satellite radar interferometry for terrain-motion measurement.

• Geological information already held by National Geological Surveys.

• The landuse and landcover information provided by the EC’s Urban Atlas.
