Zambia 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 FL20230131ZMB** This map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected water using VIIRS in Zambia between 07 to 11 February 2023. Within the cloud free analysed areas of about 653,000 km² and based on Worldpop spatial demographic data and the maximum flood water extent, about 400,000 people out of 19 million are potentially exposed or living close to maximum floodwaters 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 FL20230131ZMB** This map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected water using VIIRS in Southern, Lusaka, and Central Provinces, Zambia between 26 to 30 January 2023. Within the cloud free analyzed areas of about 20,000 km² and based on Worldpop spatial demographic data and the maximum flood water extent, about 80,000 people out of 800,000 are potentially exposed or living close to maximum floodwaters 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: FL20200305ZMB** This map illustrates satellite-detected water via VIIRS-NOAA over Central, Luapula, Muchinga and Northern Province in Republic of Zambia between the 1st and the 05th March 2020. Within the analysed extent not covered by clouds, a total of about 10,000 km2 appear to be flooded. Based on Worldpop population about 28,000 people were potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas in Lunga district. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground fedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.
