Constructive Convergence
Imagery and Humanitarian Assistance
Information
Abstract
Imagery assessment is a vital tool used by humanitarian responders when disaster strikes. Whether derived from satellite, aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), or ground views, imagery offers event
confirmation and impact, an early assessment, and a foundation on which to initiate response planning. The goal of this paper is to illustrate to the technical community and interested humanitarian users the breadth of the tools and techniques now available for imagery collection, analysis, and distribution, and to provide brief recommendations with suggestions for next steps.
