Özet
After the Turkey-Marmara earthquake that occurred in 1999, it was realized that this region had a great risk because of its closeness to the North-Anatolian fault line. Going on research showed that another severe earthquake is expected in the following thirty years. These research results brought into agenda not only the precautions that should be considered but also the importance of the rescue management, In rescue management, the damage assessment is a major issue in determining the optimal way in the usage of the rescue sources. This paper proposes a method of damage assessment based on satellite images taken before and after a disaster. This study also includes the synthetical construction of post-earthquake images. © 2007 IEEE.
