A massive earthquake has hit central Chile and killed at least 122 people, though the toll is expected to rise.
The 8.8 quake caused widespread damage, destroying buildings, bridges and roads in many areas, including the capital where a chemical plant caught fire.
As Civil Engineers, our hearts are with the Chileans especially those who have lost their beloved ones. I may hasten to say that from what I have seen on TV and with a Quake of such magnitude it seems most of the structures really survived and caused minimal fatalities. This can be credited to the Engineers from that great country.

Remote Sensing and GIS Accuracy Assessment
Ross S. Lunetta, John G. Lyon,
CRC Press 2004| ISBN-10: 156670443X| 304 Pages | PDF | 7,8 MB
The difficulties inherent in assessing the accuracy of large-area spatial data sets, their subsequent analysis by GIS, and their importance to landscape characterization make the development of methods for robust accuracy assessment a critical challenge. In December 2002, the U.S. EPA sponsored a symposium focused on evaluating the scienctific elements relevant to performaning of accuracy assessments for remote sensing derived data sets and GIS data analysis and integrated products. The result is this peer-reviewed text from an international group of scientists representing federal, state and local governments, academia, and non-governmental organizations.
