Title
Satellite detected water extents between 01 and 07 September 2022 over Pakistan
Description
**UNOSAT code FL20220808PAK, GDACS Id: 1101522** This map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected water using VIIRS in Pakistan between 01 to 07 September 2022. Within the analyzed area of about 880,000 km², a total of about 60,000 km² of lands appear to be affected with flood waters. Floodwaters seem to have decreased of about 25,000 km² since the period between the 01st July to 31rd of August 2022. Based on Worldpop population data and the maximum flood water coverage, at least 22 million people were potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas in August 2022. 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). Dotted line represents approximately the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir agreed upon by India and Pakistan. The final status of Jammu and Kashmir has not been agreed upon by the parties. The boundaries and names shown, and the designations used on this map do not imply official endorsement or acceptance by the United Nations.
