Measure the four systems.
Rain, tide, river and terrain are collected from open federal sources and aligned to the lab grid.
Evidence / ContextEvidence
Evidence
with context.
Hyperion does not turn one image into a claim. It combines measured water systems, terrain and event evidence on a research-scale lab grid, then delivers a probabilistic review surface. Live tropical status is NHC/NWS only.

What the images do
Context first. Claims second.
Optical and radar imagery help an operator orient the scene: coast, river, wetland, city and change. They are evidence around the system, not a replacement for the measured inputs or event labels.

From physical signals
to an inspectable answer.
The same sequence is applied across every lab. Regional adapters change the data sources; the product contract stays stable. Target architecture is 50–100 m; the shipped research grid is coarser (~2–4 km cells).
Estimate what may compound.
Baseline susceptibility and a compound event stub produce a score per research cell. Labels are weak where they must be, and leakage checks stay outside production features.
Attach the uncertainty.
Temperature scaling, conformal intervals and a dual-gate ops alert keep historical event skill honest.
Observed and short-horizon precipitation.
Water levels and astronomical tide context.
Stage and discharge, historic and realtime.
Elevation, HAND and the places water concentrates.
Map / Score / Action / 02
One result, three ways to use it.
The output is not a static risk score. It is a time-bounded operating surface that can be inspected, compared and acted on.
Map
A processed event cell layer with lab, event, driver and alert context (historical evidence).
Score
A probability-style score with calibration artifacts—not a false street-level certainty.
Action
An ops alert and ranking so a team can inspect, stage or communicate from evidence.

Confidence / 03
The range is part of the answer.
Hyperion shows the probability, confidence interval, source context and limitations together. A 76% estimate is useful because the operator can also see the range around it and what could move it.

A workspace built for the decision, not the dashboard.
After access, the operator gets a workspace with connected labs, historical event timelines, model runs, ops alerts and inspectable artifacts. Live tropical eyes (NHC/NWS) stay separate from processed event evidence.

Coverage today / Phase 01
What we have now.
The product is US-first with 13 active operator labs (3 canonical + 10 expansion). “Coverage” here means an operating lab with data, event context and a defined product contract—not a promise that every street has perfect ground truth.

Expansion / 04Expand by evidence,
Expand by evidence,
not by map size.
The architecture is multi-region, but expansion is gated by data quality, local calibration and a responsible operating partner.
Florida, Big Bend and Louisiana. Federal data stack, MVP technical freeze and live phase-one product work.
Recife / RMR as the second launch. PE3D, Cemaden history, BNDO tide and drainage-data gates must close first.
Future candidates are not committed yet. The same schema can move to other coastal, riverine and monsoon cities once open data, local labels and a partner are verified.
Research preview for prep and review.
Not an operational street-level flood forecast.
Live status is federal NHC/NWS. Compound cell scores and dual-gate hours are historical event evidence on a km-scale research grid. Target 50–100 m and live per-cell nowcast remain roadmap — not shipped.
