Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;">Dates of Images:Pre-Event: May 2024Post-Event: 7/9/2024Date of Next Image:UnknownSummary:The Black Marble (BM) images were created by the NASA Black Marble Science team, with directed funding the NASA-Google Partnership program. The images map the impact of flooding and wind from Tropical Storm Beryl around Houston, Texas and its effects on electric grids. The baseline image is from May 2024, a cloud-free, moon-free composite, and the “after" image is from July 2024. There is a layer to display where clouds are present in the "after" images. This comparison between the images is meant as a visual assessment of outage impacts from the extreme heat to aid various partners who are working to deliver emergency aids to local communities. Power outage maps like these help disaster response efforts in the short-term as well as long-term monitoring during the crucial stages of disaster recovery.From the BM data, raster calculators between the baseline and July 9th were performed. The resulting symbology and information represent pixels that likely suffered a large amount of power loss for a given date relative to baseline.Suggested Use:NOTE: NASA’s Black Marble nighttime lights product (VNP46), and as such are a “modelled” or “best guess” estimate of how lights are distributed at a 500m resolution. These images should be used for visualization purposes, not for quantitative analysis.The image is in a yellow-red color scale. Red indicates more severe impacts. Baseline data was collected across several clear days in April 2024.Satellite/Sensor:The primary data source, NASA’s Black Marble nighttime lights product suite (VNP46), utilized to generate this product is derived from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Day/Night Band (DNB) onboard the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Platform (SNPP) along with high resolution base layers - Landsat derived normalized index products (NDVI and NDWI) and OpenStreetMap (OSM) derived road layerResolution:500 metersCredits:NASA Black Marble Science teamPlease cite the following two references when using this data:Román MO, Stokes EC, Shrestha R, Wang Z, Schultz L, Carlo EA, Sun Q, Bell J, Molthan A, Kalb V, Ji C.
