Summary:

The NASA GSFC landslides team manually mapped landslide initiation points after the February 6, 2023 earthquakes in Türkiye. 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 or snow were not included.

NOTE: This is a rapid response product. We have not done any form of manual corrections. These landslides were manually mapped using different dates of PlanetScope imagery, but all are presumed to have been triggered by the 2/6/2023 earthquakes. As clouds cleared or snow melted, more landslides were identified.

This PlanetScope imagery captured by Planet Labs Inc. in February 2023 shows a few landslides following the earthquakes in Türkiye. 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.
