Oregon Fire Satellite Images From Before and After the Almeda Blaze Show Widespread Devastation
俄勒冈州阿尔梅达大火发生前后的火灾卫星图像显示了火灾造成的广泛破坏
BY ARISTOS GEORGIOU
作者:亚里士多德·乔治奥
Satellite imagery has revealed the destruction caused by a fire that ripped through two Oregon towns on Tuesday. The Almeda Drive Fire—also known as the Glendower Fire— started on Tuesday morning at the north end of Ashland, a college town located in Jackson County, southern Oregon. The fire quickly spread north, tearing through large parts of Talent and engulfing Phoenix, destroying hundreds of homes and other buildings. By early Wednesday, the blaze had reached the southern outskirts of Medford.

According to Oregon's Office of Emergency Management (OEM) the fire has burned more than 5,700 acres at the time of writing and remains zero percent contained. The satellite imagery shows the towns of Talent and Phoenix before and after the wildfire, revealing the extent of the destruction. In some of the photos, infrared imagery is used to highlight the damage. Burned vegetation and property appears in shades of black and grey, while healthy—i.e. not burned—fields and vegetation appears in shades of red.

俄勒冈州应急管理办公室表示,截至声明发表,大火已经烧毁了5700多英亩土地,目前火势并未得到控制。卫星图像显示了野火前后的塔伦特和凤凰城,揭示了破坏的程度。在一些照片中,红外图像用以突出显示造成的损害。燃烧的植被和财物以黑色和灰色显示,而健康的、未被烧毁的土地和植被以红色阴影显示。
"Basically, it looks like Phoenix and Talent are pretty well devastated," Medford Mayor Gary Wheeler told The Oregonian/OregonLive. "It looks like a lot of damage for those little towns." Chris Luz, the mayor of Phoenix—a town home to around 4,640 people—outlined the scale of the destruction after surveying the damage caused by the fire on Wednesday.
“如图所示,凤凰城和塔伦特基本上损失惨重,”麦德福市市长在接受俄勒冈现场新闻采访时表示。“那些小城镇也受到了很大打击。”凤凰城是一个有4640人的小镇,镇长克里斯·卢兹在周三调查了火灾造成的损失后,概述了这次火灾的规模。
