Satellite stereo pointclouds of the Yasman and Vakhsh Valleys, Tajikistan

Published by OpenTopography | OpenTopography | Catalog Last Checked: August 01, 2026 at 03:00 AM | Dataset Last Updated: July 21, 2025
This data was collected to search for surface ruptures of the 1949 Mw7.6 Khait Earthquake. It is a 232 km2 area of Worldview-3 imagery which has been processed to create an elevation pointcloud. The area encompasses the northern slope of the Yasman Valley, the town of Khait, the Khait Landslide, triggered by the 1949 earthquake. The point cloud was derived by applying the NASA Ames Stereo Pipeline toolkit. These worldview footprints are labelled P00X where X=1,2,3,4. Also included is a footprint derived from Pleiades stereo imagery 174km2 on the Vakhsh Fault covering near vertical ruptures higher up the valley side. This was derived using Agisoft Metashape Pro v1.6
