Our Mission and Vision

OUR MISSION

The Oregon Hazards Lab uses science, technology, and community engagement to understand, detect, and mitigate multi-hazards within the Pacific Northwest.

OUR VISION

The Oregon Hazards Lab will develop the most advanced all-hazards, environmental, and ecosystem observing platform in the United States to:

  • Provide physical, life, and social scientists with curated, open-access data that are the cornerstones of scientific discovery
  • Deliver actionable and equitable information to the public, emergency managers, lifeline infrastructure providers, Tribal governments, and decision makers
  • Simultaneously foster convergent research and build a disaster-resilient society.
