Abstract
Despite its immediate need, evaluating tsunami damage proves to be difficult due to the vast affected area. Debris in a high resolution optical image of tsunami affected area as well as digital elevation models were used to estimate the inundated area. This paper shows how the usage of remote sensing technologies can help to promptly estimate tsunami damage.[This abstract is not included in the PDF]
