Post-earthquake Damage Assessment Using Satellite and Airborne Data in the Case of the 1999 Kocaeli Earthquake, Turkey
To date, prevention of natural disasters is only rarely achieved, and such events continue to pose an increasing threat to life and property. Especially following earthquakes, there is a need for rapid, accurate and reliable damage information in the critical postevent hours. Remote sensing technology can provide valuable information for response activities due to potentially high spatialtempor...
متن کاملImproved Disaster Management through Post-earthquake Building Damage Assessment Using Multitemporal Satellite Imagery
Remote sensing technology is playing an increasingly important role in post-disaster decision support. Organizations including the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) and Multidisciplinary Center for Earthquake Engineering Research (MCEER) recognize that following major earthquakes, satellite imagery can bring significant benefits to response and recovery efforts, through urban dam...
متن کاملAdvanced Methods For Building Information Extraction From Very High Resolution SAR Data To Support Emergency Response
Rapid damage assessment after natural disasters (e.g. earthquakes, floods) and violent conflicts (e.g. war-related destruction) is crucial for initiating effective emergency response actions. Remote sensing satellites equipped with multispectral and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging sensors can provide vital information due to their ability to map affected areas of interest with high geome...
متن کاملExperiences in Optical and Sar Imagery Analysis for Damage Assessment in The
The Sichuan Earthquake on the 12th of May 2008, and the extensive rescue operations following this tragic event, proved the value of high-resolution optical and radar remote sensing during the emergency response. Optical data provide a fast and simple way to value “at glance” damages while radar sensors can deliver images independent of weather conditions, day and night, and thus in principle c...
متن کاملRemote Sensing Technology for Earthquake Damage Detection
Remotely sensed imagery data from satellites and airborne platforms have become important tools to assess vulnerability of urban areas and to grasp damage distribution due to natural disasters. The platform and sensors of remote sensing should be selected considering the area to cover, urgency, weather and time conditions, and resolution of images. Satellites with optical and/or SAR sensors can...
