SUPPLEMENTING SATELLITE IMAGERY WITH SOCIAL MEDIA DATA FOR REMOTE RECONNAISSANCE: A CASE STUDY OF THE 2020 TAAL VOLCANO ERUPTION

Social sensing and satellite imagery are named as the top emerging data sources for disaster management. There is a wealth of data, both in quantity and quality that can be extracted from social media platforms such as Twitter, given that the content published by users is generally in real-time and...

description Social sensing and satellite imagery are named as the top emerging data sources for disaster management. There is a wealth of data, both in quantity and quality that can be extracted from social media platforms such as Twitter, given that the content published by users is generally in real-time and includes a geotag or toponym. To reduce costs, risks, and time, performing reconnaissance using remote sources of information is highly suggested. This study explores how social media data can be used to supplement satellite imagery in post-disaster remote reconnaissance using the January 2020 Taal Volcano Eruption in the Philippines.
