In their research work, GFZ researchers consider the demands of social stakeholders and engage in dialog in a variety of formats. Interaction with and consultation of civil society target groups is of particular importance in order to generate knowledge and provide assistance in overcoming future challenges. We use various transfer formats:

• Information websites with freely available data, e.g: 
  • Global Water Storage: Information platform on the GRACE/ GRACE-FO satellite missions for monitoring global water availability
  • GEOFON providing global information and data on earthquakes; international reference point for media and disaster control for rapid recording and interpretation of quake events geofon.gfz-potsdam.deIndices for the measurement of geomagnetic storms
  • TEODOOR on the course and effects of global change and the development of adaptation strategies at the regional level
  • Global Earthquake Model GEM: collaboration aimed at providing both organizations and individuals with tools and resources for transparent assessment of earthquake risk anywhere in the world
  • IGRF Declination Calculator: based on the International Geomagnetic Reference Field and interactively providing estimates of magnetic declination, inclination, and field strength for any location on Earth from 1900 to 2025.
  • Early warning systems, such as the German-Indonesian Tsunami Early Warning System (GITEWS): development, construction and commissioning of a complex infrastructure for protection against the consequences of natural disasters
• Early warning systems, such as the German-Indonesian Tsunami Early Warning System (GITEWS): development, construction and launch of a complex infrastructure to protect against the consequences of natural disasters
• Web guide for correct behavior in the event of flooding, e.g. for Thuringia (only available in German)
• The object-specific flood damage database for Germany HOWAS 21 for expert users from the fields of insurance, regional planning and civil engineering
• Citizen dialog formats, e.g. within the framework of "TERENO Nord-Ost - Observatorium Nordostdeutsches Tiefland": Link to video
• Citizen Science projects, e.g. "Nachtlichter": citizens and scientists collect data together via an app
• The GFZ Journal with topics, regions and research foci of the GFZ for the interested public
