A trip to Thailand to test using satellite imagery to monitor long-term disaster recovery. We had two or three days in the hot and steamy concrete jungle of Bangkok and then spent a week in Ban Nam Khem, a fishing village on the west coast, that had been badly damaged by the tsunami. We had a day off and visited the fabulous ‘James Bond’ island in Phnag Nga Bay Phuket where Roger Moore fought Scaramanga played by Christopher Lee in ‘Man with the Golden Gun’.
