Bellingcat contributor Ollie Ballinger developed a tool to estimate damage in Ukraine. He has now repurposed the tool to estimate the number of damaged buildings and the likely affected population in a given area within the Gaza Strip. https://www.bellingcat.com/resources/2023/11/15/a-new-tool-allows-researchers-to-track-damage-in-gaza/?utm_source=mastodon

This new tool developed by Ollie Ballinger allows users to see a probability of how many buildings have been damaged in a selected area. The same methodology can be found in other tools assessing damage in Ukraine and Turkey, both of which can be accessed here https://oballinger.github.io/PWTT/

The damage is mapped by measuring the change in the intensity of the radar waves reflected back to the Sentinel-1 satellite before and after October 10, 2023 from a given area, adjusted for how noisy the signal is in both periods.
