Mayotte - Chido cyclone
This parent metadata sheet groups together the various data layers linked to the assessment of damage to the buildings in Mayotte following the passage of cyclone Chido on December 14, 20204, which is being carried out in OpenStreetMap by volunteer contributors using post-disaster Pleiade imagery. For more information on the methodology employed, see these blog posts:
https://leslibresgeographes.org/cartographie-osm-des-dommages-du-bati-a-mayotte-apres-chido/
These layers, all freely accessible and downloadable, are as follows:
- layers named with an emsr780_ prefix, based on data retrieved from https://rapidmapping.emergency.copernicus.eu/EMSR780, which represent the assessment areas used as polygons, and the building damage assessment carried out by EMSR Copernicus for Chido in December 2024 as points .
- polygon layers named with a hotosm_[project id] prefix, representing the grid of tasks to be mapped on the various projects uploaded to the HOT Tasking Manager for building damage assessment in OSM
- 4 polygon layers named with a Mayotte_Pleiades_202412 polygon prefix, which represent the visible areas of the post-disaster Pleiades imagery, and a polygon layer named Mayotte_Pleiades_20241217to20_bounds_clouds_SeverinGeo, which is the cross-reference and represents, on the contrary, the areas that are still covered by clouds on the 4 imageries, and therefore inexploitable for the assessment.
- the osm_en_building_damage_copernicus polygon layer, which represents OSM buildings with the damage assessment carried out by OSM contributors, and which incorporates a semantic cross-reference with the Copernicus EMSR780 assessment. It is updated continuously, at intervals of a few minutes from the OSM database.
- the yt_osm_en_admin_boundary_admin_level_8_communes_stats layer, which uses polygons to represent the boundaries of Mayotte's 17 communes, with a statistical summary of OSM and EMSR780 building damage assessments, their cross-referencing, the total number of buildings, the total number of buildings usable for assessment (because not covered by clouds), the number of buildings yet to be assessed, and the percentage of buildings already assessed (among those that can be assessed). It is updated every hour.
For OSM layers other than Chido (all those with names beginning with osm_), also listed in the WFS section below, see https://ifl2.francophonelibre.org/geonetwork/srv/fre/catalog.search#/metadata/10825532-981c-4bf7-900e-bd1b6a6bb19a
To visualize data, use the links below to the MapStore map or to map views (in EN or FR versions). Some indicators are also presented in a dashboard (EN or FR version).
There are two ways to download the data:
- either the entire territory in one of the formats available via the WFS point “OSM EN and FR Chido and thematic layers for the entire territory” below
- or on a part of the territory to be drawn yourself or to be chosen within the administrative boundaries of the territory in question, using the maps or MapStore view. Demonstration videos are available here: https://llg-collabora.ethibox.fr/s/owY8DQTQpgDr8sw
Currently, GEOPACKAGE FORMAT IS NOT FUNCTIONAL (the resulting layers are empty): prefer geojson format to retrieve all field names and convert them to geopackage from QGIS.
