ABOUT IN-CORE

SCIENCE-BASED AND BACKED BY RESEARCH

IN-CORE, or the Interdependent Networked Community Resilience Modeling Environment, was developed by the Center of Excellence for Risk-Based Community Resilience Planning – a U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-funded Center of Excellence.

The effort to develop IN-CORE brought together a 14-university consortium of almost 100 collaborators, scholars and researchers specializing in engineering, economics, data and computing, and social sciences. After nearly a decade in development, IN-CORE is available for public use and is the ultimate computational decision support platform based on a sound scientific theory and empirical evidence. It is among the most advanced modeling platforms in the world.

IN-CORE can save a community money by helping them understand the most practical way to address vulnerabilities so they can see what makes sense to invest in versus what’s a luxury.”

IN-CORE has made us more efficient in our response and recovery process. There’s comfort living in a community when its people know that it’s prepared for the next disaster.”
