PROFILE

Catarina Costa

Contributed to the gem/oq-engine repository by developing and refining landslide risk modeling features and enhancing technical documentation over a two-month period. Focused on backend development and scientific computing, the work included implementing robust numerical models for landslide displacement and probability, introducing new models such as AllstadtEtAl2022Landslides, and improving the stability and accuracy of existing algorithms. Used Python and Markdown to standardize documentation, clarify model parameters, and ensure reproducibility. Added comprehensive tables and READMEs to support onboarding and client demos, while improving test coverage and maintainability. The contributions established a more reliable and transparent foundation for geoscience modeling.
