Editorial interest 83/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

Runout Labs ranks canyons on a burn scar, identifies roads and other infrastructure below them, and tracks storms that could trigger debris flows.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-11 issue.
For
Emergency managers and downhill infrastructure owners
Worth noticing
The site reports that all canyons that flowed in its Thomas Fire test ranked in the top third of 36 canyons.

Field notes

The page explains a four-part sequence: screen a burn scar, watch forecast storms over the highest-ranked canyons, and brief teams on the roads and assets below them. Its Thomas Fire example combines 30 m Landsat burn-severity data, 10 m USGS terrain, radar observations, and a mapped 2018 flow extent. The site says a person reviews every outgoing message; access to the service is offered by walkthrough rather than an open tool.
