This map illustrates satellite-detected damage to infrastructure and roads in a portion of the city of Deir Ez Zor, Syrian Arab Republic and is derived from a full UNOSAT analysis of damage to Deir Ez Zor in 2017. Using satellite imagery acquired 9 November 2017, UNITAR - UNOSAT identified 6 destroyed bridges, 54 damaged road segments and 93 visible impact craters affecting roads. Approximately 169 structures corresponding to educational facilities, and 21 structures likely related to health facilities are also affected. UNOSAT analysis shows that there are 3 destroyed electricity towers south of the city. Note that sources of infrastructure data include various open source datasets which are likely incomplete, as well as visual review of satellite imagery by UNOSAT for certain features like towers. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.

This report documents damage over the Gaza Strip following the July-August 2014 conflict. It is based on analysis of commercial satellite imagery and quantifies damage to overall building structures, health facilities, education facilities, agricultural fields and greenhouses. The study also compares damage from the 2014 conflict to that of the 2009 conflict. The analysis is supplemented by ground photos following UNOSAT deployment to Gaza in September 2014.

This dataset updates: Never

This map illustrates satellite-detected areas of flood affected land as detected by LANDSAT-8 imagery acquired 10 September 2014 in Wazirabad area, Punjab Province (Pakistan). The area along Chenab River and agricultural areas northern Wazirabad are most likely inundated by floods caused by monsoon rains. It is likely that flood waters have been systematically underestimated because of the cloud coverage on the image. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field.

This dataset updates: Never

This map illustrates satellite detected possible flood water & saturated soil over Wad Madani, in Al Jazeera State, extracted from Radarsat-2 imagery (12 m) acquired on 18 August 2016. According to satellite derived analysis some areas within Al Jazeera State seem to be flooded. Possible flooded agricultural areas and saturated soils are particularly visible over Southern Al Jazeera Locality. The exact limit of flood waters is uncertain because of the low spatial resolution of the satellite data used for this analysis. Detected water bodies likely reflect an underestimation of all flood-affected areas within the map extent. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.

This map illustrates satellite-detected areas of IDP shelters in the UN House compound in Juba, Central Equatoria, South Sudan. UNITAR-UNOSAT analysis of satellite imagery acquired 05 September 2016 and 30 August 2016 revealed a total of 8,783 shelters as well as 320 infrastructure and support buildings within the compound. This represents an increase of approximately 4 percent in shelters and an increase of roughly 38 percent in infrastructure and support buildings since the previous UNITAR-UNOSAT analysis of 27 June 2016 satellite imagery. New structures and containers were detected within PoC2 on 27 June 2016, as seen in inset 2. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field.

This map illustrates evolution of satellite detected waters over the central part of Khartoum City, Sudan, extracted from TerraSAR-X imagery (3 m) acquired on 11 August 2016 and SPOT-7 on 15 August 2016 (1.5 m). During this period, it has been observed that the water expansion is predominantly located in areas along Nile river banks. Additionally, the analysis carried out by UNITAR-UNOSAT also shows water expansion on the right bank of the Blue Nile and on the left and right banks of the White Nile. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR-UNOSAT.

This map illustrates satellite-detected possible flood water & saturated soil over Khartoum City in Suda nextracted from SPOT-7 imagery on 15 August 2016 in Khartoum State. UNOSAT analysis shows, an expansion of possible flood water and saturated soil over areas particulary located on right bank of the Blue Nile and White Nile, without causing floods inside build up areas. Detected water bodies likely reflect an underestimation of all flood-affected areas within the map extent. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field.

This map illustrates satellite-detected possible flood water & saturated soil over Sennar State, extracted from Radarsar-2 imagery acquired 12 August 2016. UNOSAT has analysed the area using a Radarsat-2 image acquired on 12 August 2016 to identify and delineate the Possible Flood Water & Saturated / Wet Soil. According to satellite derived analysis some areas within Sennar State seem to be flooded. In addition, and the Blue Nile increased its size especially in the right bank, without apparently causing floods inside build up areas.The exact limit of flood waters is uncertain because of the low spatial resolution of the satellite data used for this analysis. Detected water bodies likely reflect an underestimation of all flood-affected areas within the map extent. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field.

This map illustrates shelters in the area of the Rukban border crossing on the Syrian-Jordanian border. Using a satellite image collected by the Pleiades satellite on 02 September 2016, UNOSAT located 8,295 probable shelters along the Jordanian side of the border, 25 kilometers southwest of the Al Waleed crossing. This is an 26 percent increase in apparent shelters visible compared to the previous UNOSAT analysis done using an image collected 25 July 2016. Due to the small size and the irregularity of the shelters it is likely that some shelters may have been missed in this analysis, or some shelters were included erroneously. Due to the scale of this map and the lack of suitable border information at this scale, the border in this map has been excluded. This map is intended for field support and local authorities should be consulted for boundary information. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field.

This map illustrates satellite-detected shelters and other buildings at the Al Zaatari refugee camp in Mafraq Governorate, Jordan. As of 30 June 2016 a total of 25,815 shelters were detected as well as 1,879 infrastructure and support buildings within the 534 hectares of the camp. Between 12 October 2015 and 30 June 2016 a total of 2,568 shelters were constructed, with even more removed, indicating an approximate 4.26% decrease in the number of shelters between 12 October 2015 and 30 June 2016. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field; structure locations subject to a spatial error margin of +/- three meters. Shelters grouped under plastic sheeting were estimated by average household size and may be a source of error. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR-UNOSAT.
