(HRI/CRI) Vector Release Notes — File Specification

US: The release notes for Hurricane Rapid Impact is a vector file representing imagery frames used in the analysis.

Australia: The release notes for Cyclone Rapid Intelligence is a vector file representing imagery frames used in the analysis.

The imagery frames represent regions of valid data and serve to communicate the product coverage for the event. As releases occur, new areas of interest are appended to the file. The attributes of the vector features will detail the timeliness (pre-post imaging timings) for that frame. These attributes enable the user to judge relevance of the damage detected to their situation.

File format: Geopackage (.gpkg)
CRS: EPSG:4326

Attributes:

  • Event_id: WIND-####
  • Event_name: e.g., Tropical Cyclone Sean
  • Release_num: #
  • Pre-image_datetime: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ
  • Post-image_datetime: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ

Note: both source documents use "Tropical Cyclone Sean" as the example event name for Event_name, even in the Hurricane (US) guide.
