Georgia water data

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

**UNOSAT code: FL20220627GEO** This map illustrates satellite-detected surface waters in Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti and Imereti Regions, Georgia as observed from a Sentinel-1 image acquired on 23 Jun 2022 at 19:11 local time. Within the analyzed area of about 2,500 km2, about 50 km2 of lands appear to be flooded. Based on Worldpop population data and the detected surface waters, about 1,600 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 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.
