✦ Suggested by OrionAIThis data illustrates the satellite detected surface waters in Manica, Sofala, and Tete Provinces in Mozambique, as observed from Sentinel-1 imagery acquired on 13, 14, 19 and 20 March 2019.
This map illustrates the cumulative satellite-detected surface waters in central provinces of Mozambique and particularly the Sofala province and its surroundings, as observed from the Sentinel-1 imagery acquired between 13 & 26 March 2019. Within the analysis extent. over Sofala and Manica provinces, a total of 170,000 km2 of surface imagery were analyzed and about 10,000 km2 of lands experienced floods within this period. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.

**UNOSAT code TC20230314MWI, GDACS Id: 1000961** This map illustrates satellite-detected surface waters in Southern Region, Malawi & Tete and Zambezia Provinces, Mozambique as observed from a Sentinel-1 image acquired on 17 Mar. 2023 at 05:09 local time. Within the analyzed area in Malawi of about 5,000 km2, about 320 km2 of land appear to be flooded. Water extent appears to have increased of about 60km² since the 14 Mar. 2023. Within the analyzed area in Mozambique of about 20,500 km2, about 1,000 km2 of land appear to be flooded. Water extent appears to have increased of about 150km² since the 14 Mar. 2023. Based on Worldpop population data and the detected surface waters in the analyzed area in Malawi and Mozambique, respectively ~47,000 people and ~75,000 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 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 the backscattering properties of the radar signal.
