5 datasets about water in Cameroon.

Waterways of Cameroon

Water features across the area: rivers, streams, canals, lakes, ponds, and water bodies tagged with `waterway`, `water`, or `natural=water`. Useful for flood-risk modelling, watershed analysis, and environmental basemap context. Coverage reflects where volunteer mappers have been active. Urban areas are usually well represented, remote areas may be sparse. Cross-check critical decisions with local field knowledge. - Source: OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map - Tags: waterway, water, natural - Part of the country exports on HDX by HOT

Satellite detected water extents between 16 and 20 August 2024 over Far-North Region, Cameroon

**UNOSAT code: FL20240821CMR** This map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected water extent in Farth-North Region, Cameroon between 16 to 20 August 2024. Within the cloud free analysed areas of about 33,000 km², a total of about 4,100 km² of lands appear to be affected with flood waters. Water extent appears to have increased of about 2,500 km² since the period between 07 to 11 August 2024. Based on Worldpop population data and the maximum flood water extent, ~350,000 people in Far-North Region are potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas, amongst which ~130,000 people in Mayo-Kani Department and ~120,000 people in Logone-et-Chari Department. 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).
