Genitourinary system trauma after 2003 Bam earthquake in Kerman, Iran
BACKGROUND Natural disasters, especially earthquakes, result in many health problems all over the world, of which urological injuries should not be underestimated. Car accidents and falling from a height are the most common causes of genitourinary system injury. The lack of specific data in the literature regarding the outcome of earthquake-related genitourinary system trauma prompted us to und...
متن کاملInterferometric Displacement and Damage Assessment for the 2003 Bam Earthquake
We demonstrate that interferometric observations of the Mw6.6 Bam (Iran) earthquake on December 26, 2003 acquired by Envisat-ASAR can not only map surface displacements and constrain fault models, but can also be used for damage mapping using the coherence magnitude. The Bam earthquake was the deadliest earthquake in 2003. An estimated 30000 people were killed and 85% of the buildings in the ar...
متن کاملAutomated Damage Detection and Visualization of the 2003 Bam, Iran Earthquake Using High-resolution Satellite Images
This study focused in how to thoroughly exploit the capability of high-resolution satellite imagery such as IKONOS and QuickBird for disaster mitigation. An efficient automated methodology for damage detection was firstly implemented to derive the available rich information from satellite imagery. That detected results and the satellite imagery consequently were attractively presented through a...
متن کاملBuilding Damage Detection of the 2003 Bam, Iran Earthquake Using Quickbird Images
A strong earthquake with magnitude 6.5 struck the city of Bam in the southeast Iran on December 26, 2003. The earthquake brought massive destruction to the city and its surrounding rural areas. The earthquake caused the deaths of approximately more than 26,000 residents and injured about 30,000. QuickBird captured a clear image of Bam on January 3, 2004, eight days after the event. The city was...
متن کاملDamage Assessment with Very-High Resolution Optical Imagery Following the December 26, 2003 Bam, Iran Earthquake
This paper presents a methodology for quantifying the number of buildings that collapsed following the Bam earthquake. The approach is ‘object’ rather than ‘pixel’-oriented, commencing with the inventory of buildings as objects within high-resolution Quickbird satellite imagery captured before the event. The number of collapsed structures is computed based on the unique statistical characterist...
