1 Progress Report: Sentinel Asia Success Story in the Philippines 3 rd Joint Project Team Meeting on the Sentinel Asia STEP-2 July 6-8, 2010 Hyatt Hotel, Manila, Philippines Renato U. Solidum Jr. Director Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology Department of Science and Technology

2 Sentinel Asia Success Story in the Philippines Objectives (1) Establish a pioneering example using Sentinel Asia initiative as a Success Story in the region (2) Effectively apply information delivered by Sentinel Asia for emergency response (3) Share the pioneering example to other members (4) Demonstrate usefulness of Sentinel Asia in the region

3 Prone to many natural hazards and have been affected by past disasters Sentinel Asia recognizes that the Philippines has sufficient experience and mechanism in disaster management Philippines has signified interest to promote utilization of Sentinel Asia Why in the Philippines?

4 Implementation scenario General To make end users in the Philippines learn about the Sentinel Asia Initiative and its usefulness. Preparation phase Philippine participants prepare for potential disasters by making hazard maps for landslides, floods and lahars using ALOS data, in cooperation with Japan, so that communities in the Philippines can increase its awareness and preparedness for potential disasters. Emergency phase Philippine participants ask Sentinel Asia Initiative for Emergency Observation Request (EOR) so that they may properly identify/detect and assess the affected areas when a disaster strikes for effective disaster response. This will also validate the usefulness of ALOS imagery. Duration: early Sentinel Asia Success Story in the Philippines

5 Framework Sentinel Asia Success Story in the Philippines Japan Delegation Focal Point of Activity in Philippines Advisory Agencies Agreement PCASTRD- DOST NDCC Contract JAXA PHIVOLCS Advice Implementing Agencies RESTEC (L. Support) NAMRIA PAGASA MGB OCD Disaster Information Dissemination End User Agencies NTT Data/PASCO (T. Support) The local government, Rescue Authority and Press etc

6 Role of each Team in Preparation Phase Team JAPAN Prepare for the Philippines ALOS Data over the Study Area Support for Base Map and Hazard Map creation Team PHILIPPINES Implement data analysis Base Map, Hazard Map Dissemination of achievement to end users Organize regional Workshop Prepare ALOS data Prepare technical support Support regional Workshop Joint Project Contribution to Sentinel Asia Share Base Map and Hazard Map to SA Establish utilization network based on Sentinel Asia

7 Role of each Team in Emergency Phase Team JAPAN Team PHILIPPINES Prepare to the Philippines ALOS Data for EOR Support for Change Detection Prepare ALOS data Prepare technical support Accept EOR in the case of disaster occurred Joint Project Initiate EOR in the case of disaster occurred To implement data analysis Change Detection Apply achievement to disaster response Dissemination of achievement to end users Contribution to Sentinel Asia Prepare onsite information to SA Share Change Detection to SA Utilization Report

8 Implementation Schedule DEC. 08 JAN. 09 FEB. 09 MAR. 09 Introduction Phase Kick off meting 12/M Production Pase 1st on site visit 2nd on site visit 3rd on site visit Finalization Phase Workshop Summarize Evaluation 3/M Year 2009 Year 2010 Operational Phase

9 Creating Hazard Maps with the use of ALOS Satellite Data Sentinel Asia Success Story in the Philippines Flood - Antique Province (MGB) Lahar Mayon Volcano (PHIVOLCS) Flood - Iloilo City (PAGASA)

10 Study area 1: Mayon Volcano (PHIVOLCS) 2462m high; most active volcano in the Philippines; 49 historical eruptions frequent occurrences of lahars ~100,000 people live along slopes 466mm rainfall in 12 hours 30November 2006 caused lahars; deposited 31 million m 3 of debris, 1-4 m thick in 12 km 2 area; caused death of close to 1,000

11 Digital Elevation Model ALOS PRISM smooth SRTM detailed PRISM Modeling of Lahars by LAHARZ software USGS Open Source Software

12 Fieldwork at Mayon (Feb 2010) FIELD VALIDATION: to collect Ground Control Points for DEM Validation Insrument used: Trimble 5700 GPS

19 Emergency Observation When disaster happens, Sentinel Asia can accept Emergency Observation Request from users, and Space Agency observes disaster afflicted area by Satellite. Then satellite imagery are provided to users.

20 EOR: Flooding related to SW monsoon rains in Botolan, Zambales, Luzon Island, August 8, 2009 Objectives: 1. Determine extent and cause of flooding in A Botolan; threatened by lahars and floods after 1991 eruption of Pinatubo 2. Determine changes in the river system 3. Recommend actions to the local government 10 Flooded villages: 1.5 m high
