✦ Suggested by OrionAI**UNOSAT code: FL20231105SOM** This map illustrates satellite-detected surface waters in Juba Hoose and Juba Dhexe Region, Somalia as observed from a Sentinel-2 image acquired on 3 December 2023 at 07:39 UTC. Within the analysed area of about 20,000 km2 about 1,300 km2 of land appears to be flooded. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to United Nations Satellite Centre (UNOSAT).
**UNOSAT code: FL20211015SSD** This map illustrates satellite-detected water in Rubkona, Koch, and Guit Counties of South Sudan as observed from a Sentinel-2 image acquired on 17 October 2021. Within the cloud free analyzed areas of about 40,000km2, a total of about 5,700 km2 of lands appear to be flooded. Based on Worldpop population data and the detected surface waters, ~138,000 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).
**UNOSAT code FL20231105SOM** This map illustrates satellite-detected surface waters in Jilib District, Juba Dhexe & Afmadow Jamaame District, Juba Hoose Region, Somalia as observed from a Sentinel-1 image acquired on 07 November 2023 at 02:54 UTC. Within the analysed area of about 7,300 km², about 60 km² of land appear to be flooded. 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.

Within the analyzed area of about 11,900 km2, about 82 km2 of lands appear to be flooded. Based on Worldpop population data and the detected surface waters in the analyzed area, about 3,500 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).
**UNOSAT code: FL20240425SSD** This map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected water using VIIRS in South Sudan between 26 to 30 October 2024 compared with the period from 20 to 24 October 2024 . Within the cloud free analysed areas of about 630,000 km², a total of about 43,000 km² of lands appear to be affected with flood waters. Water extent appears to have increased of about 3,700 km² since the period between 20 to 24 October 2024 . Based on Worldpop population data and the maximal flood water extent ~870,000 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).
