Title
Satellite detected water comparative analysis between mid-September to mid-October 2020 and 2021 over South Sudan
Description
**UNOSAT code: FL20211015SSD** This map illustrates historical comparative cumulative satellite-detected water using VIIRS in South Sudan between 19 Sep. to 18 Oct. 2021 and 20 Sep. to 19 Oct. 2020 . Within the analyzed extent not covered by clouds, a total of about 70,000 km2 appear to be flooded. Based on Worldpop population data and the detected surface water, about 2,000,000 people are exposed or living close to flooded area. 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).
