Damage to individual buildings in an urban area of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, from the 2010 Haiti earthquake was assessed by means of high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) intensity images and ancillary building footprints. A comparison of pre- and post-event images and a building damage inventory showed that backscattering intensity between images was more significantly changed in collapsed buildings than in less damaged buildings. The linear discriminant function, based on the difference and correlation coefficient of the images was developed to detect collapsed buildings. The result showed that almost 75% of the buildings were correctly detected by discriminant analysis. An accuracy assessment revealed the difficulty of detecting small and congested buildings because the number of image pixels was too small and the buildings were obscured by neighboring buildings and other features in the images. |
