This study presents detection of the collapsed buildings caused by, earthquake,, using digital elevation models (DEMs) created from pre- and post -earthquake stereo aerial photographs. It is based on the idea that changes in the height, of collapsed buildings can be detected. The study was conducted using aerial: photographs taken before (1994) and after (1999) the lzmit earthquake in. Turkey. DEMs were created automatically from both pre- and post-earthquake. aerial photographs at 5m spatial resolution. The DEMs created from the two epochs were then differenced and the difference DEM obtained was analyzed building by building to detect those buildings whose height difference between pre- and post-earthquake exceeded a specified threshold level. The producer's accuracy for detecting the collapsed buildings was found to be 84'. The results show that the difference DEM of the pre- and post-earthquake aerial images can reveal successfully the collapsed buildings caused by the earthquake. It was found that determining an optimum threshold level between change and no change pixels of the difference DEM is important.

Geometric correction accuracy of IRS-1D PAN imagery using topographic map versus GPS control points
Turker, M; Gacemer, AO (Informa UK Limited, 2004-03-01)
Geometric correction accuracy of IRS-1D panchromatic imagery was investigated using GPS- and 1 : 25 000 scale topographic map-derived control points. The differentially corrected GPS-derived coordinates provided markedly more accurate results than did uncorrected handheld GPS- and map-derived GCPs. The rms error value of differentially corrected GPS-derived control points based on second-degree polynomial was in the order of +/-3 m. Geometric corrections made with second-degree polynomials, using both the m...
Hierarchical classification of Sentinel 2-a images for land use and land cover mapping and its use for the CORINE system
Demirkan, Doga C.; Koz, Alper; Duzguna, H. Sebnem (SPIE-Intl Soc Optical Eng, 2020-06-01)
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential of the Sentinel-2 satellite for land use and land cover (LULC) mapping. The commonly known supervised classification algorithms, support vector machines (SVMs), random forest (RF), and maximum likelihood (ML) classification are adopted for investigation along with a proposed hierarchical classification model based on a coordination of information on the environment land cover system. The main classes for land cover and mapping in the proposed hierarchica...
Effects of implementing satellite observed aerosols into a mesoscale atmosphere model
Bay, Emine; Yücel, İsmail; Kovacs, Tom; Mccormick, M. Patrick (Informa UK Limited, 2011-01-01)
This study investigated the performance of the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University-National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU-NCAR) Mesoscale Model (MM5) in calculating the aerosol forcing on cloud cover, incoming surface solar radiation, and near-surface air temperature via the implementation of aerosol optical depth in the shortwave radiation parameterization. MM5 simulations with and without aerosol data are performed in the periods of 6-7 August 2003 and 19-21 September 2003 during which s...
Airborne laser scanning data for snow covered biomass estimation
Vazirabad, Yashar Fallah; Karslıoğlu, Mahmut Onur (SPIE-Intl Soc Optical Eng, 2009-04-13)
Airborne laser scanning provides reliable terrain data in terms of 3D coordinates. High resolutions Digital Terrain Models (DTM) are in use for many applications, including change detection of surfaces. Also the estimation of the snow depth by making use of Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data acquired in summer and winter is a subject of current investigations. However estimating snow depth seems problematic in vegetation covered areas. This work focuses on the investigation of the snow depth estimation usin...
Real-time experimental forecast of the Peruvian tsunami of August 2007 for US coastlines
Wei, Yong; Bernard, Eddie N.; Tang, Liujuan; Weiss, Robert; Titov, Vasily V.; Moore, Christopher; Spillane, Michael; Hopkins, Mike; Kanoğlu, Utku (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2008-02-27)
At 23: 41 UTC on 15 August 2007, an offshore earthquake of magnitude 8.0 severely damaged central Peru and generated a tsunami. Severe shaking by the earthquake collapsed buildings throughout the region and caused 514 fatalities. The tsunami resulted in three casualties and a representative maximum runup height of similar to 7 m in the near field. The first real-time tsunami data available came from a deep-ocean tsunami detection buoy within 1 hour of tsunami generation. These tsunami data were used to prod...
