About this dataset
UNOSAT code: FL20250110SSD This map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected water using VIIRS in South Sudan between 25 to 29 April 2025 compared with the period from 15 to 19 March 2025 . Within the cloud free analysed areas of about 620,000 km², a total of about 11,000 km² of lands appear to be affected with flood waters. Water extent appears to have decreased of about 10,600 km² since the period between 15 to 19 March 2025 within the cloud free analysed areas. Based on Worldpop population data and the maximal flood water extent ~180,000 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).
