Data are being collected by various satellites including Japan's ALOS, CNES's Spot-5, the U.S.'s WorldView and QuickBird, Canada's RADARSAT-2, China's HJ-1-A/B and ESA's ERS-2 and Envisat.

These data are being processed into maps that show the degree of destruction. As soon as new data arrives, updated maps will be produced and made available to the international community. The updates may be accessed by clicking on the links on the right.  (have to go to the link above)

Other satellite missions that are complementing those from the Charter include Germany's TerraSAR-X, Italy's COSMO-SkyMed, South Korea's KOMPSAT-2 and the U.S.-based GeoEye-1.
