All of Fast Hazard’s models are grounded in solid scientific research. The methodologies and algorithms underpinning each model are based on peer-reviewed scientific publications, ensuring transparency, rigor, and credibility.

These models are not only built on scientific principles—they are also suitable for use in academic research themselves. The input data used within the models is derived from reputable scientific sources. For detailed information about the specific datasets and parameters used in each application, please visit the application webpage and navigate to Docs → Datasources.

Our commitment to scientific integrity is further strengthened by Bastian van den Bout’s ongoing role at the University of Twente. His active presence in the academic world and strong network ensure that we stay closely connected to the latest research and innovations in environmental modelling. As a result, several of our models have been featured in scientific publications, contributing back to the academic community and supporting further developments in the field.
