Title
Satellite detected water extent Koshi and Madhesh Provinces, as of 01 October 2024 [Nepal]
Description
**UNOSAT code: FL20240928NPL** This map illustrates the floods using Sentinel-1 images acquired on 01 October 2024 at 17:59 local time (12:14 UTC). Within the analysed area of about 6,000 km², a total of about 55 km² of land appears to be affected by flood waters. Based on Worldpop spatial demographic data, about 18,000 people are exposed or living close to flooded areas. Water extent seems to have increased by about 14 km² since 27 September 2024 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). Important note: Flood analysis from radar images may underestimate the presence of standing waters in built-up areas and densely vegetated areas due to the backscattering properties of the radar signal.
