Recent events reveal that the use of very high resolution satellite images for "early damage assessment" after seismic events can be very useful and call for deeper investigation by the scientific community. In the present study five monoscopic panchromatic images covering the historical city-center of L'Aquila, GCPs and DEMs from medium scale cartography were used because they are frequently utilized in emergency applications. The interest was to make a deeper investigation on geometric characteristics of those images, that were not fully investigated by the scientific community and to study the detection capabilities for the specific post seismic application, so several orientation and detection tests were executed.

Abstract
Recent events reveal that the use of very high resolution satellite images for "early damage assessment" after seismic events can be very useful and call for deeper investigation by the scientific community. In the present study five monoscopic panchromatic images covering the historical city-center of L'Aquila, GCPs and DEMs from medium scale cartography were used because they are frequently utilized in emergency applications. The interest was to make a deeper investigation on geometric characteristics of those images, that were not fully investigated by the scientific community and to study the detection capabilities for the specific post seismic application, so several orientation and detection tests were executed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
