<div style='text-align:Left;'><p><span>Researchers working with the Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) and Observational Products for End-Users from Remote Sensing Analysis (OPERA) teams at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California, created the OPERA Surface Disturbance Alert from Sentinel-1 (DIST-S1-ALERT) prototype product suite to create maps of surface disturbance due to the flooding in Central Texas on July 2025. </span></p><p><span>The OPERA DIST-S1 prototype results posted here are preliminary results, primarily intended to aid the field response and people who wanted to have a rough first look area impacted by the floods.
