About this dataset

# Myanmar Cyclone Mocha: Damage and Flood Proxy Maps, May 2023 The **Earth Observatory of Singapore – Remote Sensing Lab (EOS-RS)** produced these damage and flood proxy maps for Myanmar Cyclone Mocha (May 2023) from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite images. Each map is a separate ZIP below with its GeoTIFF, a KMZ for Google Earth, the PNG figures and a text file describing how it was made and how to read it. ## Maps in this dataset - **EOS-RS Damage Proxy Map: Myanmar, Cyclone Mocha, 18 May 2023, v0.9** - **EOS-RS Damage Proxy Map: Myanmar, Cyclone Mocha, 18 May 2023, v0.9** - **EOS-RS Flood Proxy Map: Myanmar, Cyclone Mocha, 14 May 2023, v0.4** - **EOS-RS Flood Proxy Map: Myanmar, Cyclone Mocha, 14 May 2023, v0.3** (superseded) **More map details and files:** **More map details and files:** **Credits:** Earth Observatory of Singapore - Remote Sensing Lab (EOS-RS), Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA), NASA-JPL/Caltech, Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2023)

Documentation

Change detection on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite images acquired before and after the event. Damage Proxy Maps show significant changes in radar coherence and amplitude; Flood Proxy Maps show areas that changed to standing water. Maps are preliminary and checked against news reports and ground-level imagery where available. The product contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2023), processed by ESA and analyzed by the Earth Observatory of Singapore - Remote Sensing Lab (EOS-RS), using the Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) system originally developed at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, and modified at EOS-RS. This map was derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images acquired by the ALOS-2 satellite operated by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) before (11 Dec 2022) and during (14 May 2023) the event. This map was derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images acquired by the ALOS-2 satellite operated by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) before (19 Feb 2023) and during (14 May 2023) the event. These are preliminary maps derived from satellite radar and should be used as guidance only. Coloured pixels may include false positives, and their absence does not mean an absence of damage or flooding.
