Abstract

Geohazards such as earthquakes, landslides, and volcanic eruptions pose severe threats to human life and infrastructure, causing significant global losses every year. Existing hazard assessment methods are limited by single-hazard focus, high computational cost, sparse data integration, and poor real-time forecasting capabilities, which limit their operational use. This study aims to develop a unified artificial intelligence (AI) framework for multi-hazard forecasting by integrating convolutional neural networks (CNNs), long short-term memory (LSTM) models, random forest classifiers, and ensemble fusion techniques. A multi-source dataset consisting of seismic, geospatial, and geochemical data was processed using an 80/10/10 split train-validate-test, cross-validation, and spatial validation strategies. The results show strong performance, with earthquake classification AUC-ROC of 0.961, magnitude prediction RMSE of 0.23 Mw, landslide sensitivity AUC of 0.957, and volcanic classification accuracy of 91.2%, outperforming several state-of-the-art benchmarks. Ensemble fusion improved performance by 2.1–3.7% over individual models. The key contribution is a scalable ensemble-based AI framework that enables integrated multi-hazard forecasting on heterogeneous datasets. However, limitations include information heterogeneity and reduced cross-regional generalizability. The framework supports real-time early warning systems, disaster risk management, and land-use planning, especially in hazardous areas.
