This research is supported by the Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate, Department of Homeland Security (DHS). We gratefully acknowledge the participation of emergency responders and managers from the cities and counties of Monterey, Los Angeles, San Diego, and Riverside California. We also appreciate contributions during project definition stage and follow-ups by the California Emergency Management Agency (Cal EMA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the U.S. Geological Survey, and DHS. AVIRIS data were acquired by NASA/JPL. The LiDAR data were provided by the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments, via a USGS grant through the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009. WV-2 data were provided by the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) under the NextView imagery license agreement.
