# Venezuela Damage 2026

## First-time publishing

First you need to validate the STAC collection with `pctasks dataset validate-collection [path-to-template.json]`, fix any validation errors.

Then submit the collection ingestion with `pctasks dataset ingest-collection -d datasets/predicted-damage-venezuela-2026/dataset.yaml -s -a registry pccomponents`

Get the workflow ID and then watch it with: `pctasks runs status $WORKFLOW_ID --watch`.
It must succeed.

Verify that it was successful with `curl "https://planetarycomputer.microsoft.com/api/stac/v1/collections/predicted-damage-venezuela-2026"`

## Updating

Simply add `-u` to the command.
`pctasks dataset ingest-collection -d datasets/conus404/dataset.yaml -u -s -a registry pccomponents`

Following the June 2026 earthquakes that struck Catia La Mar, Venezuela, the [Microsoft AI for Good Lab](AI For Good Lab - Microsoft Research) ran their building damage assessment AI models to map and classify the buildings affected by the earthquakes. The models were applied to satellite imagery captured on 25 June 2026, producing building footprints with predicted damage across the affected area.

This collection mirrors the [Venezuela Earthquakes: Building Damage Assessment in Catia La Mar](https://data.humdata.org/dataset/venezuela-earthquakes-catia-la-mar) dataset published on the Humanitarian Data Exchange (HDX) by the Microsoft AI for Good Lab and made available under the [Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC-BY-4.0)](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) license.

## Methodology

The Microsoft AI for Good Lab ran their damage assessment AI models on satellite images taken 25 June 2026 and have mapped out the affected buildings.

## Caveats

Please note that the source imagery has orthorectification quality issues, which may cause building footprints to be misaligned with existing basemaps.
