About this dataset

This dataset contains Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping products for activation EMSR927. On the 26 August 2026, a flash flood reportedly triggered by a Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOF) in Nepal has caused significant damage in Rasuwa District. Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping was requested to provide flood extent and damage assessment emergency mapping. GDACS ID: FL1104124. **Citation:** Copernicus Emergency Management Service (© 2026 European Union), EMSR927 **Product types present in this dataset's resources:** **GRA (Grading)**: assesses damage to individual features (eg. buildings, infrastructure). Where a GeoPackage download is available for an Area of Interest/round, it already contains every layer with its official Copernicus styling and colours - prefer it in GIS software over the zipped shapefile download.

Nepal Rasuwa District Floods: Damage Proxy Map, Jul 2025

# EOS-RS Damage Proxy Map: Rasuwa District, Nepal, Floods, 9 July 2025, v0.9 The Earth Observatory of Singapore - Remote Sensing Lab (EOS-RS) created this preliminary Damage Proxy Map (DPM) depicting areas that are likely damaged in Rasuwa District, Nepal, due to heavy rainfall or possibly a glacial lake outburst. This map was derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images acquired by the Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellite operated by the European Space Agency (ESA) before (10 Oct 2024 to 27 Jun 2025) and after (9 Jul 2025) the event. The map covers an area indicated by the white polygon. Damage is shown by colored pixels of 30m in size, where yellow to red indicates increasingly significant ground surface change before and after the event. Preliminary validation was conducted using news reports, ground-level images, and satellite images in selected areas. This map should be used as a guidance to identify damaged areas, and may be less reliable over vegetated or mountainous areas. Scattered pixels over vegetated or mountainous areas may be false positives, and a lack of colored pixels over such areas may not mean no damage. This product contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2024-2025), processed by ESA and analyzed by the Earth Observatory of Singapore - Remote Sensing Lab (EOS-RS). **More map details and files:** **More map details and files:** **Legal Disclaimer:** /faq/ **Credits:** Earth Observatory of Singapore - Remote Sensing Lab (EOS-RS), Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2024-2025)

Albania - Wildfire in Lura National Park, Albania (EMSR917)

This dataset contains Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping products for activation EMSR917. On 11/08/2026 at 12:00, a wildfire was detected in Lurë National Park, Municipality of Dibër, Albania. The fire has affected pastureland and pine forest areas and spread under conditions of high fuel load and low humidity. Ground and aerial firefighting resources were deployed, while firebreaks were established to protect nearby villages at risk. Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping was requested to provide wildfire extent and damage assessment mapping to support operational response and planning activities. **Citation:** Copernicus Emergency Management Service (© 2026 European Union), EMSR917 **Product types present in this dataset's resources:** **DEL (Delineation)**: maps the extent of the event itself (eg. flood, fire, landslide boundary). **GRA (Grading)**: assesses damage to individual features (eg. buildings, infrastructure). Where a GeoPackage download is available for an Area of Interest/round, it already contains every layer with its official Copernicus styling and colours - prefer it in GIS software over the zipped shapefile download.

Germany - Wildfire in Huertgen Forest, Germany and Belgium (EMSR920)

This dataset contains Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping products for activation EMSR920. On 13 August 2026 at 12:55, an active wildfire is reported to have affected the Huertgen Forest in the county of Dueren, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The wildfire is ongoing and spreading, with the fire covering more than 30 ha and approaching the village of Huertegenwald-Gey, which has been evacuated; firefighting operations involve more than 200 personnel and multiple helicopters, while explosions have been reported due to unexploded WWII-era munitions in the forest. On August 14, 2026, a new fire occured in High Fens Natural Reserve with geographical closeness to the border to Germany and the active wildfire in Huertgen Forest.
