Satellite images of Haiti

The Italian COSMO-SkyMed system pictures the area hit by the earthquake

17 Jan 2010

In the ILU map, red elements show areas where there is a big difference in the backscattering between the pre and the post event images and therefore these areas could have been affected by the earthquake.

 

 


ILU modified (Interferometric Land use modified)

 

Red: Absolute value of the difference between the pre and post SAR detetcted amplitude (26.04.2009 - 15.04.2009)

 

Green: Mean value of the difference between the pre and post SAR detetcted amplitude (26.04.2009 - 15.04.2009)

 

Blue: Interferometric coherence (26.04.2009 - 15.04.2009)
