Landslide Monitoring in Ecuador

This week’s user story is about monitoring a landslide area in Ecuador. In February 2020, the San Rafael waterfall collapsed, and regressive erosion started around the Coca River, which put the environment and indigenous communities in the surrounding area in danger. The study area is located in Northeast Ecuador, at the River Coca, between the San Rafael Waterfall and the Coca Codo Sinclair Hydropower Dam and close to the volcano Reventador. They analyzed the erosion event with Sentinel-1 SAR data and included in the validation the PS Tropical Normalized Analytic Biannual Archive basemap from June to November 2019 and PlanetScope Imagery between 2020-02-14 and 2020-03-2021. The researchers emphasized that remote sensing and GIS are crucial for assessing and analyzing landslide areas and particularly significant for better regional risk management.Click here to read the article and learn more about the research.

Analyzing landslide using Planet imagery

Hello, community. This is my first post. So, I want to share a quick application of Planet imagery for analyzing landslides. The study case is in a small province in Peru's Andes. This disaster destroyed more than 100 houses. Fortunately, there were very few fatalities. You can read more about this event at this link.

Resolution of Data not as expected

The basic license granted to me as an educator permits use of low resolution data ONLY, so not useful for the targeted use by my PhD students in 11 West African countries. Is there any explanation for this?

​Basemap viewer and GEE's tfrecord image different

We notice a significant difference between some images that Planet shows us on its Planet-NICFI Basemap Viewer and those extracted in TFRecord format. Here is a guided example of what we notice:There is a shp and a geojson (id_27954006.zip) of a 540x540 meters grid on this link: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jv-oFoLkJZLCJieXIpULBYxqsPg6wl32?usp=sharingThis is what this geometry looks like in  ‘planet_medres_normalized_analytic_2021-10_mosaic’ in Basemap Viewer: Basemap View of the id_27954006.geojson in 2021-10 normalized mosaicWe extract the NICFI-Planet geometry of this shp into TFRecord files using Planet integration with Google Earth Engine. Tropical Americas Image Collections are filtered as in the developer’s example using python. We use ee.Filter.date(‘2021-10-01’, ‘2021-10-31’) to get the same October mosaic basemap than before.This process results in a TFRecord file (id27954006_1.tfrecord.gz) with bands data from Planet Basemap (R, G, B). When we extract the information of t
