In this paper, we study the problem of efficiently assessing building damage after natural
disasters like hurricanes, floods or fires, through aerial video analysis. We make two main …

On 6 February 2023, a powerful earthquake at the border between Turkey and Syria caused
catastrophic consequences and was, unfortunately, one of the deadliest earthquakes of the …

This study analyzes the ability of polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR)
measurements to quantify post-earthquake damages. To achieve this goal, a twofold task is …

Earthquakes are one of the most devastating natural disasters, causing serious and severe
damage to human life and property. Hence, developing a fast, reliable and automated …

Quick building damage assessment following disasters such as large earthquakes serves to
establish a preliminary estimation of losses and casualties. These datasets are completed …

Frequent occurrence of earthquakes and the massive exploitation of underground resources
make Songyuan City an area prone to surface deformation. Surface deformation causes …

This study investigates the extra benefit provided by the joint use of synthetic aperture radar
(SAR) polarimetric diversity and ascending/descending orbit passes to quantify …

Multi-temporal RS data is not often available in time after an earthquake, so it is useful to
assess the building situation with a single post-event SAR. Aiming at the problem that the …

Recent advances in big data (BD) have focused research on the volume, velocity, veracity,
and variety of data. These developments enable new opportunities in information …

Rapid damage mapping following a disaster event, especially in an urban environment, is
critical to ensure that the emergency response in the affected area is rapid and efficient. This …
