Abstract

In order to achieve rapid large-scale seismic damage prediction, this paper studied on relevant application of high-resolution remote sensing (RS) and GIS. As this technique takes RS image as information source, investigation and improvement of existing attribute information extraction methods has been done to realize automatic extraction and precise intelligent interpretation. Moreover, software platform integration of RS and GIS is also accomplished by secondary development for seamless data transmission and further operation in GIS. Furthermore, structural vulnerability analysis method has been introduced to GIS system for calculating damage degrees of various structure forms. Thus, intuitionistic prediction results are obtained in GIS interface. In addition, this paper took a case study on a county of Henan province to verify its reliability.
