Geodata of Flood Water over Tokwe Mukorsi Dam, Masvingo Province, Zimbabwe
Description
This map illustrates satellite-detected water bodies at the Tokwe Mukorsi Dam, Masvingo Province, Zimbabwe, as detected by TerraSAR-X on 11 February 2014. The flooded area above the dam has greatly increased due to recent heavy rains and currently encompasses about 2,300 ha. It is likely that flood waters have been systematically underestimated along highly vegetated areas along main river banks because of the special characteristics of the satellite data used. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR /UNOSAT.
