Short summary
This study explores how radar satellite images can rapidly assess cyclone damage in coastal Bangladesh, where clouds and limited access hinder traditional methods. By using satellite radar coherence to track surface changes across five major cyclones, it identifies impacts on land, vegetation, and infrastructure with high accuracy. The findings highlight a reliable tool for faster disaster response and improved planning in vulnerable regions.
