Robert E. Crippen, Ph.D. NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 91109 USA 818-354-2475 crippen@jpl.nasa,gov Geotechnical Engineering Earthquake Reconnaissance: Use of Remote Sensing
REMOTE SENSING Wavelengths: * Visible Light & Reflectance Infrared * Radar Platforms: * Spaceborne * Airborne
TECHNIQUES Using Visible & Reflectance Infrared: * Post-Quake-Image Direct Recognition * Change Detection (Pre-vs-Post Imagery) * Visual * Computational * Imaging Spectroscopy Some Sensors: Quickbird, Ikonos, Aerial Using Radar Imagery: * Backscatter Images * Change Detection * Interferometry * Polarimetry Some Sensors: ERS/ENVISAT, Radarsat, Airborne
DIGITAL PROCESSING • Correlation Images (Damage creates low) • Difference Images (Damage creates high) • Complex Coherence (Radar) • Edge Enhancements (Movements vs Reflectance) • Texture measurements: Temporal & Spatial Changes • Calibration / Normalization • Vegetation Masking

Airborne Visible & Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) Mapping Asbestos
PROBLEMS / CONSIDERATIONS • Clouds / Smoke / Darkness: Radar advantage • Resolution: Visible / NIR advantage • Acquisition Speeds: Utility and Clean-Ups • Archive Availability • Acquisitions before quake (any at all?) • Acquisitions that match… • Non-Quake Differences: • Seasons: vegetation and shadows • Viewing geometry (distortions & hidden areas) • Construction & non-quake demolition
