Geodata of Update: IDP Camp Expansion in UNMISS Base, Juba Airport, South Sudan

This map illustrates the camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs) in the UNMISS base at Juba airport as seen by the WorldView-1, Pleiades and WorldView-2 satellites on 19 January 2014, 7 January 2014 and 28 December 2013. As of 28 December a significant portion of the airport is used by IDP?s shelters, occupying approximately 7 ha. Since then the camp extent has moderately increased its area. Imagery acquired on 19 January 2014 shows that the total area of IDP?s occupies 8.9 ha, compared to the 7.9 ha detected on 7 January 2014. Note that IDP occupied areas include improvised shelters and, in some cases, administrative support and other structures. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field.

Satellite Detected Surface Waters Extent and Evolution in Ha Tinh Province

This map illustrates the satellite-detected surface waters extent and evolution in Ha Tinh Province, Vietnam, as observed from the Sentinel-1 images acquired on 12 and 24 October 2016.  An increase of surface waters extent was observed from the 24 October 2016 image: ~26,400 ha of surface water were observed the 12 October 2016 and reached ~30,700 ha the 24 October 2016. All over the analysed zone, it corresponds to an evolution of about 16%. More specifically, in Tri River (Song Tri) lake and dam an increase of 177 ha was observed. For Ke Go Lake and dam, an evolution of 30% of the total surface water was observed in between the 12 October and the 24 October 2016. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.

Geodata of Flood Waters and Inundation Near Khwaja Du Koh, Jawzjan Province, Afghanistan

This map illustrates satellite-detected water bodies and inundated areas near Khwajah Du Koh, Jawzjan Province, Afghanistan as seen on WorldView-2 satellite imagery collected 29 April 2014. Heavy rainfall occurred on 23-24 April 2014, flooding a large part of the town. UNOSAT extracted a Water Index from the satellite image to determine areas of standing water as well as soils with varying levels of water content (ie, mud). It is likely that flood waters and inundation have been systematically underestimated along highly vegetated areas and within built-up urban areas because of the special characteristics of the satellite data used. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR /UNOSAT.

Geodata of Rapid Satellite Imagery Assessment and IDP Shelter Analysis - South Sudan

With the rainy season in South Sudan coming to an end in September of 2015, the United Nations (UN) Country Team and humanitarian actors required information to plan efficient delivery of assistance and protection to people in need. Due to challenging logistical conditions, it had not been possible to reach this population during the rainy season. The United Nations Institute for Training and Research ? Operational Satellite Applications Program (UNITAR-UNOSAT) developed a monitoring framework for South Sudan, in consultation with United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) and other organizations working in the country. To support humanitarian assistance planning, UNITAR-UNOSAT conducted a qualitative analysis using high-resolution satellite imagery over portions of the Unity and Jonglei states in South Sudan (see Map 1). The analysis identified areas of destruction, looting, internally displaced persons (IDPs), and visible cattle, a potentially useful indicator of population and wealth distribution in these areas. Subsequently, UNITAR-UNOSAT performed a quantitative analysis of possible IDP shelters and estimated the number of potentially damaged structures within the same areas. This report outlines the methods and results of this analysis.

Geodata of Update 6: Reduction of Somali IDP Shelter Concentrations in Mogadishu, Somalia  (3 June 2013 - 24 November 2013)

Summary: A total of 324 spatially distinct IDP shelter concentrations were identified as of 24 November 2013 within Mogadishu, representing a decrease of 56 IDP sites since the last UNOSAT analysis which used an image from 13 June 2013. An estimate of the total number of IDP structures located in Mogadishu indicates a minimum figure of at least 55,000 mostly informal shelters. The number of IDP camps has significantly reduced in multiple areas of Mogadishu. This report is the sixth in a series of IDP analyses done by UNOSAT since 2011 and is based on a time-series analysis of shelter concentrations within the city of Mogadishu using multiple satellite images acquired between 30 March 2011 and 24 November 2013.

Geodata of Satellite Detected Waters Over Khartoum Area, Khartoum State, Sudan

This map illustrates satellite-detected waters around the Khartoum City in Sudan as detected in satellite imagery acquired by the TerraSAR-X satellite on 11 August 2016 in Khartoum State. UNOSAT analysis shows an expansion of water of~ 90Km2 (over the analysed area) particularly located in the left bank of White Nile without 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.

Update: Destroyed buildings in Maungdaw and Buthindaung townships, Maungdaw District, Myanmar

This map illustrates satellite-detected destroyed or otherwise damaged structures in Maungdaw and Buthindaung townships, Maungdaw District, Myanmar. The analysis found a total area of more than 160  thousand square meters of destroyed structures occurring between 25 September and 1 October 2017. This represents an increase of approximately 1% since last UNOSAT analysis with imagery collected on 25 September, when more than 20.5 square kilometers of destroyed structures were identified. Additionally, 6 fires were detected within the area between 25 September and 1 October 2017 by the MODIS and VIIRS sensors, with recent fire detections indicating destruction is likely ongoing. Most of the detected fires are located in the proximity of the affected areas as observed in the imagery collected 1 October. Finally, heavy cloud cover and haze during the period in question, indicates that destruction and fire detections are likely underestimated in this analysis. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.

Fires at the Al Qayyarah oil field, Nineveh Governorate, between 18 July and 14 December, 2016

This map illustrates satellite-detected fires and smoke plumes at oil wells south of Mosul, and also east of Baiji, Iraq. The Mosul fires began with an initial fire at one or two wells on 8 May 2016, lasting less than one day, and intermittently burned in June. The current fire complex began on 3 July with daily fire detections occurring until about 12 July, when the fires greatly increased in number and continued to burn to the present at that scale. The fires east of Baiji have been active since early January 2016. The frequency of smoke plumes (in days) is symbolized in shades of red and yellow, and was calculated using daily MODIS satellite images collected between 18 July and 14 December, 2016.  Note that as the plume dissipates then areas of thinner smoke are not detected in this process. The inset on the top right corner shows the thermal data from a Landsat image collected on 7 December, indicating the Mosul fires in white. The inset on the top left corner, from 6 December, shows the same area in false color, displaying the near infrared band in red. Additionally, precipitation data from NASA's IMERG algorithm was included to evaluate instances of rainfall intersecting the smoke plume.
