Example

Mapping fault lines and mineral deposits

Scenario

Geological surveys are conducted to locate natural resources such as oil, gas, and minerals. For example, geologists might use seismic data to map fault lines in California, helping to predict earthquake-prone areas and guide construction regulations to minimize damage.

Example

Predicting hurricanes and storm patterns

Scenario

Meteorologists use satellite data and weather models to predict severe weather events like hurricanes. This information is crucial for disaster preparedness, allowing governments and communities to evacuate areas, secure infrastructure, and mitigate damage.

Example

Assessing the impact of a new highway on local ecosystems

Scenario

Environmental scientists evaluate the potential effects of construction projects on the environment. Before a new highway is built, they might study the impact on local wildlife habitats, water quality, and air pollution, ensuring that mitigation measures are in place to protect the environment.
