This map illustrates satellite-detected areas of damage in the western portion of the town of Awaran resulting from the earthquake occurring 24 September 2013. Using an image acquired 26 September 2013 by the Pleiades satellite, UNOSAT reviewed the area for evidence of destroyed buildings and signs of possible damage. A total of 142 structures were identified as destroyed in the analyzed area, and an additional 48 were possibly damaged. The remaining 4,522 structures in the analyzed area showed no signs of damage visible in the satellite imagery. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR / UNOSAT.
