      <title>Satellite detected water extents between 13 &amp; 17 November 2020 in Honduras</title>
      <description>This map illustrates satellite-detected surface waters (cumulative) aggregated using NOAA20-VIIRS in Honduras between 13 and 17 November 2020. Based on Worldpop spatial demographic data, about 140,000 people are exposed or living close to flooded areas. The potentially exposed population is mainly located in the department of Cortes with ~80,000 people, Choluteca with ~23,000 people, and Valle with ~14,000 people. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR-UNOSAT</description>

      <title>Satellite detected water extents between the 13th and the 17th November 2020 in El Salvador</title>
      <description>This map illustrates satellite-detected surface waters (cumulative) in El Salvador as detected by VIIRS-NOAA satellite between 13th &amp; 17th November 2020. Within the analyzed area of about 20,000 km2, a total of about 440 km2 of lands appear to be flooded. Based on HRSL population data and the detected surface waters, about 44,000 people are potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas. The potentially exposed population is mainly located in the departments of Usulutan with ~9,000 people, La Union with ~8,500 people, and Santa Ana with ~7,500 people. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR-UNOSAT.</description>

      <title>Inundaciones en Nicaragua entre el 13 y 17 de Noviembre 2020</title>
      <description>Este mapa ilustra las inundaciones detectadas por el satÃ©lite NOAA-VIIRS en Nicaragua entre el 13 y 17 de Noviembre. Dentro del Ã¡rea analizada de aproximadamente 95,000 km2, un total de aproximadamente 2,000 km2 de tierras parecen estar inundadas. Basado en los datos de poblaciÃ³n de Worldpop y la extensiÃ³n de las aguas superficiales detectadas, alrededor de 100,000 personas estÃ¡n potencialmente expuestas o viven cerca de Ã¡reas inundadas. La poblaciÃ³n potencialmente expuesta se encuentra principalmente en el departamento de Chinandega con ~25,000 habitantes, en el departamento de Manague con ~16,000 habitantes, y em el departamento de AtlÃ¡ntico Norte con 10,000 habitantes. Se trata de un anÃ¡lisis preliminar que aÃºn no ha sido validado en el terreno. Por favor envÃ­e comentarios a UNITAR-UNOSAT.</description>

      <description>This map illustrates satellite-detected surface waters in Atlantida and Yoro Departments of Honduras as observed from a Sentinel-1 image acquired on 18 November 2020 at 05:37 Local time. Within the analyzed area of about 3,000 km2, a total of about 40 km2 of lands appear to be flooded. Based on Worldpop population data and the detected surface waters, about 1,200 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 UNITAR-UNOSAT. Important Note: Flood analysis from radar images may underestimate the presence of standing waters in built-up areas and densely vegetated areas due to backscattering properties of the radar signal. </description>

      <title>Damage Assessment in Providencia Island, Providencia and Santa Catalina Department, Colombia as of 21 November 2020</title>
      <description>This map illustrates potentially damaged structures and buildings in Providencia Island, Providencia and Santa Catalina Department of Colombia as detected by satellite image acquired after landfall of the Tropical Cyclone IOTA on 17 November 2020.  UNITAR-UNOSAT analysis used a WorldView-2 image acquired on 21 November 2020 as a post-event image. Within the Island boundary, UNITAR-UNOSAT identified in the cloud-free zones 1,110 damaged structures. Taking into account the pre-building footprints provided by Humanitarian OpenStreetMap, this represents about 90% of the total number of structures within the analyzed cloud-free areas. </description>
