The 2015 Gorkha Nepal Earthquake: Insights from Earthquake Damage Survey
The 2015 Gorkha Nepal earthquake caused tremendous damage and loss. To gain valuable lessons from this tragic event, an earthquake damage investigation team was dispatched to Nepal from 1 May 2015 to 7 May 2015. A unique aspect of the earthquake damage investigation is that first-hand earthquake damage data were obtained 6–11 days after the mainshock. To gain deeper understanding of the observe...
متن کاملEstimation of Earthquake Damage Through Radar Interferometry (Case study: Bam 2003 Earthquake)
The estimate of the damage caused by the earthquake and other natural disasters in the first days after the occurrence of these events can provide a quick damages assessment and help to manage the crisis. Several methods are available to investigate the extent of earthquake’s damage. Optical remote sensing, photogrammetric methods (UAVs and LIDARs), radar interferometry (InSAR) and field observ...
متن کاملEarthquake Loss Estimation Including Transportation Network Damage
Large earthquakes have the potential of causing extensive damage and enormous economic losses. These losses are primarily attributable to the reduction in functionality of various facilities in the affected region and the rebuilding costs, and can be reduced through strategic preand post-earthquake decisions. This thesis describes an integrated methodology to estimate losses due to scenario ear...
متن کاملBuilding Damage Detection from Post-earthquake
The collapsed buildings due to earthquake were detected from post-event aerial images using watershed segmentation algorithm. The objective was to detect the collapsed buildings based on the analysis of the cast shadows. The building boundaries were available and stored in a GIS as vector polygons. The building polygons were utilized to perform assessments in a building specific manner. The app...
متن کاملReal-time Seismology and Earthquake Damage Mitigation
■ Abstract Real-time seismology refers to a practice in which seismic data are collected and analyzed quickly after a significant seismic event, so that the results can be effectively used for postearthquake emergency response and early warning. As the technology of seismic instrumentation, telemetry, computers, and data storage facility advances, the real-time seismology for rapid postearthqua...
