Looking for a realistic disaster/search-and-rescue environment for Isaac Sim (USD)

Hi everyone!

I'm currently working on my master's research involving autonomous drones, Vision-Language Models (VLMs), and Isaac Sim.

I'm looking for a realistic disaster or search-and-rescue (SAR) environment where I can place simulated victims and evaluate my perception architecture.

Ideally, I'm looking for environments such as:

  • Urban earthquake / collapsed buildings
  • Search and Rescue (USAR)
  • Flooded city
  • Landslide
  • Industrial accident
  • Any disaster scenario suitable for drone operations

Requirements:

  • USD preferred (or easily convertible to USD)
  • Compatible with Isaac Sim (or Omniverse)
  • Large outdoor environment
  • Realistic assets
  • Ability to place and animate people/NPCs

I'm happy with both free and paid assets.

If you've worked on something similar or know of a good environment, repository, asset pack, or dataset, I'd really appreciate your recommendations.

Thank you!
