UN Operational Satellite Applications Programme (UNOSAT)**UNOSAT code: TC20220201MDG** This map illustrates satellite-detected surface waters in Isandra, Lalangina, and Vohibato districts, Haute Matsiatra region, Madagascar observed from a Kompsat5 image acquired on 12 February 2022 at 06:14 local time. Within the analyzed area about 1,700 km2, a total of about 10 km2 of lands appear to be flooded. The water extent appears to have decreased of about 40 km2 since 8 February 2022. Based on Worldpop population data and the detected surface waters, about 2,400 people are potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas. This is a preliminary analysis that has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to 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 backscattering properties of the radar signal.water-extents-in-isandra-lalangina-and-vohibato-districts-haute-matsiatra-region-as-of-12-Humanitarian Data ExchangePublicSatellite detected water extents in Isandra, Lalangina, and Vohibato districts, Haute Matsiatra region, as of 12 Feb. 22DatasetsMadagascar2022-02-17
