Title
Satellite detected water extents from 20 and 24 April 2024 over Pakistan
Description
**UNOSAT code: FL20240425PAK** This map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected water using VIIRS in Pakistan from 20 to 24 April 2024. Within the analyzed area of about 880,000 km², a total of about 9,000 km² of land appears to be affected by flood waters. Based on Worldpop population data and the maximum flood water coverage, at least 1.5 million people were potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to the United Nations Satellite Centre (UNOSAT).
