Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Updated: Oct. The algorithm development was carried out at JPL under a contract with NASA.

The Earth Observatory of Singapore coordinated with Sentinel Asia to timely task the ALOS-2 satellite. The damage proxy map was created by NASA-JPL/Caltech's ARIA team using ALOS-2 satellite SAR data. Although the data is less accurate over dense vegetation, images like this one help governments and responders to identify areas that experienced significant damage and to allocate resources accordingly. Preliminary validation of the satellite data was done in collaboration with the Earth Observatory of Singapore by comparing with local media information and photos. Using the unique capabilities of NASAs Hubble Space Telescope, a team of astronomers has discovered the most energetic outflows ever witnessed in the. The color variation from yellow to red represents increasingly more significant ground surface change, or damage likely caused by the earthquake and tsunami. Emerging technology could help detect these natural hazards via acoustic and gravity ripples they hurl towards space. Each pixel measures about 33 yards (30 meters) across. NASA Researchers Detect Tsunamis by Their Rumble in the Atmosphere Waves churn in Onomea Bay, Hawaii, where the sea rose by more than 30 feet (9 meters) during the deadly tsunami of April 1, 1946. The map covers an area of about 42 by 44 miles (67 by 70 kilometers), shown by the red polygon. This map, produced by NASA's Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) team, shows that damage. 28 in northern Indonesia and the devastating tsunami that followed it killed more than 1,400 people and left a large trail of destruction.
