PRISM will develop a multimodal AI platform that fuses environmental, structural, and socioeconomic data to generate dynamic Risk Hotspot Maps for social housing in Cambridgeshire. By identifying properties most at risk of deterioration, the system will enable proactive intervention. The project embeds human oversight throughout, ensuring AI supports—rather than replaces—the professional judgement of housing officers.
