TerraWatch Turns Satellite Data Into Disaster Decisions
A Japanese satellite-intelligence platform that combines imagery, geospatial data, and expert analysis for disaster response.
Field notes
The platform combines satellite observations with population, building, road, terrain, and infrastructure datasets, then presents the result through maps, regional comparison dashboards, and location-linked reports. Its stated workflow includes collecting information proactively, identifying settlements and facilities inside affected zones, and adding photographs or public-source reports to fill gaps that imagery cannot resolve. The homepage uses flooding in Rasuwa, Nepal, as a verification example and lists forest-fire, ground-deformation, land-use, and crop-mapping services alongside disaster analysis.
