**UNOSAT code TC20230221MOZ, GDACS Id: 1000961** This map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected water using VIIRS in Mozambique between 15 to 19 March 2023. Within the cloud free analyzed areas of about 600,000 km², a total of about 21,000 km² of lands appear to be affected with flood waters. Based on Worldpop population data and the maximal flood water extent ~1,400,000 people are potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas. 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).
