Cali and Valle del Cauca (SkySat, post-event) — 11 August 2026
Very-high-resolution (~0.8 m) SkySat collects acquired 11 August 2026 at 12:44 UTC, about 24 hours after the mainshock, over Cali and the surrounding Valle del Cauca lowlands. Three adjacent collects forming a single continuous strip running north-east to south-west from Palmira across the Cali metropolitan area to the Farallones foothills. Visual, pansharpened, and usable-data mask products for building-level and infrastructure damage assessment. All three collects report 0% cloud cover and the UDM2 confirms cloud at or below 0.01%, but light haze covers 2%, 12% and 6% of the valid pixels of u0001, u0002 and u0003 respectively — check the UDM2 light-haze band before radiometric work. Note also the oblique acquisition geometry — 25.6-28.2 degrees off-nadir with a 23.7 degree sun elevation — which produces pronounced building lean and long shadows; account for both before differencing against the near-nadir pre-event basemap. The footprint lies roughly 160 km south of the epicentre, covering the largest population centre within the shaking footprint rather than the epicentral area itself. 3 scenes; each Item carries the available visual, pansharpened, udm2, and udm assets.
