Haiti: January 12, 2010Mw 7.0
• 200,000 – 300,000 fatalities.
• Massive damage from building collapse including houses, govt. buildings, UN headquarters, airport.

Analysis of high-resolution airborne and terrestrial LIDAR after recent events
• Goal:– support rescue and recovery
first – and then to support science
• ~2.7 billion individual point measurements in (3D) space; 66.8 GB on disk
• January 21 – 27, 2010, an area of 850 km2 surveyed using airborne LiDAR at an average density of ~3.2 points/m2
• Funded by World Bank, coordinated by USGS, collected by Rochester Institute of Technology

Remote mapping
• Guided field work• Gave consistent
results as found in the field
• Can improve quality and quantity of rapid scientific response

We concluded that the 2010 earthquake was a relatively small event between the 1751
and 1770 ruptures.

Interactive scientific visualization for rapid response
• Interactive visualization in a VR environment has the potential to completely change rapid scientific response to events
• Visualization of these very large datasets is challenging, but feasible, using octree data representation.
• Human-in-the-loop is essential to interpretation (combined with automated methods)
• Underway: change detection (time series)• Future developments: Coupling data interpretations
with simulations
