Hmm, if someone has 3m/px PlanetScope access, could be helpful for that missing woman near Mt. Waterman, California. (I don't have real time access, only archive access) #remoteimaging #gis #SearchAndRescue #SAR #AngelesNF

May not load great here (Mastodon does not like these GIF animations), but comparison of 3/24/25 and 3/29/25 images on this small town (Sam Ngao) you can see there have many areas where there have been some high rises/buildings collapsed. You can tell because the color of the buildings change from one color to another (roof into pile of rubble). 3/29/25 #Thailand #Earthquake #disaster #RemoteImaging

Scale is not exactly, but the cluster of lights in that 3/26 image does correspond with Mandalay, Myanmar--apparently NO detectable light on the VIIRS Day/Night band satellite. #Myanmar #Burma #Earthquake #RemoteImaging #satellite

Use of Sentinel-1 satellite to assess landscape changes due to the Palisades Fire (via NASA). #PalisadesFire #RemoteImaging #Wildfires #Sentinel1

This map displays change detection imagery from areas impacted by wildfires in Southern California. Change is detected using a logarithmic difference calculation to highlight where change has occurred in Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery between Dec. 28, 2024, and Jan. 9, 2025. In general, the forested areas impacted by fire appear red, as the structural complexity of the canopy is decreased when vegetation is burned. Urban areas appear blue, as burned buildings are more irregular in structure than rooftops. Credits: Log Difference layer generated by Alaska Satellite Facility (ASF). Source 10-m Sentinel-1 RTC products in power scale were processed by ASF DAAC HyP3 2025 using GAMMA software. Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data 2025, processed by ESA.

Rose Bowl is being used as Fire Camp, you can see the fire camp here.

(Off topic: man, the grass there is completely thrashed right now. They usually use those fields where all the fire trucks are parked for soccer and lacrosse. Apparently got thrashed in a concert in the summer and they were going to have to re-do it all). #RoseBowl #EatonFire #RemoteImaging

Sports stadium on top, the Rose Bowl. Many pop up tents and hundreds of fire vehicles from all over the western states parked in neat rows.

Smoke at the north end of Eaton acquired by Maxar on 01/14/25 -- they typically hit these with long line helicopters, but it appears the high tension power lines rule that out in this case. CALFIRE is on scene.... you can see either beehives or an old pot grow (with no plants growing) there nearby. (probably beehives) #EatonFire #RemoteImaging

Smoke rising over a canyon, just smolderingFire crews on scene around smoking. Small boxes on the left, probably beehives.
