1. There is a new type of radar being developed by NASA that will eventually be able to detect slight abnormalities in the ground to predict sinkholes
2. If a sinkhole is caught early enough workers can inject grout underneath the hole and stop it "it's similar to a dentist filling a cavity"
3. We can also accelerate sinkholes

Sinkholes may be common in Florida but over the past 40 years only two people have died because of them

Since almost the entirety of Florida is underlain with carbonate rocks that can allow water to permeate them over time they could dissolve and cause sinkholes almost anywhere in Florida

Sinkholes do not necessarily occur on certain plate boundaries but more depend on what is underground at the time like an old mine or possibly a broken septic tank

They happen more in the central part of Florida

right now there is no way to predict a sinkhole but to protect yourself from sinkholes you can know the warning signs and before constructing a building you can install pre-construction piers and somethings you could do to prepare include making a disaster survival bag and hire a professional to check your area for the probability of sinkholes
