MIT has developed a tool that can accurately predict flooding following a large storm like a hurricane.

The tool combines a generative AI model with a physics-based model to essentially create a satellite image of what a certain area will look like with flooding caused by a particular storm based on the strength of the oncoming storm.

The team hopes the tool will help city planners act accordingly to mitigate flood risks.
