This map illustrates satellite-detected water over the flood-affected provinces in the Red River Delta Region, Vietnam. Probable flood waters were detected with ENVISAT-ASAR radar data acquired on 10 November 2008 at a spatial resolution of 150m (WSM). Pre-flood ASAR radar data from 3 October 2008 was also used in this analysis. A summary table of flood water area (km2) by province is included in the map. This flood assessment is a preliminary analysis & has not yet been validated in the field. Map scale for A3: 1:650,000, Projection : UTM Zone 48 North, Datum : WGS 1984. | |
