Date of Images:April 20, 2024, April 21, 2024, May 6, 2024, May 7, 2024, May 8, 2024Summary:The NASA GSFC landslides team manually mapped landslide initiation points after the April 29, 2024 heavy rainfall in Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. The landslide initiation points were derived from PlanetScope imagery. This is only a portion of the region where landslides occurred, and areas covered with clouds were not included. More landslides will be mapped in coming days.NOTE: This is a rapid response product. These landslides were manually mapped using different dates of PlanetScope imagery, but all are presumed to have been triggered by the 4/29/2024 heavy rainfall event. As clouds cleared, more landslides were identified.This PlanetScope imagery captured by Planet Labs Inc. in May 2024 shows landslides following the heavy rainfall in Brasil. True Color RGB provides a product of how the surface would look to the naked eye from space. The True Color RGB s produced using the 3 visible wavelength bands (red, green, and blue) from the respective sensor. Some minor atmospheric corrections have occurred.Suggested Use:True Color RGB provides a product of how the surface would look to the naked eye from space.
