This map illustrates satellite-detected increase in flood water extent along the Chobe River between the dates 17, 20, 25 & 29 March 2009 in the Caprivi Region, Namibia. Flooded areas are sorted into 5 classes by date: Purple areas represent the spread of flood waters from 25 to 29 March; Red areas the spread of flood waters from 20 to 25 March; orange areas the spread from 17 to 20 March; and yellow areas the extent of flood waters on 17 March 2009; Blue areas represent pre-flood water from multiple dates. Flood analysis was made using DMC, Radarsat-2 & ENVISAT-ASAR data. Because of the difference in satellite sensors, there is some degree of uncertainty about the exact level of flood extent change over time. This flood detection is a preliminary analysis & has not yet been validated in the field. Map scale for A3: 1:375,000; Projection : UTM Zone 34 South WGS 1984.
