This map presents an overview of temporary shelter locations of displaced Haitians in Port-au-Prince and Carrefour, as identified in satellite imagery recorded on 13 January 2010. These IDP locations range in size from small clusters of survivors (approx 20-50) to large concentrations numbering in the low thousands. Locations are commonly situated in open areas away from unstable buildings, in parks, sport fields, church compounds and grassy medians of main roads. Four case examples are show in the imagery. This is a preliminary analysis & has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR / UNOSAT. Map scale for A3: 1:55,000; projection: UTM zone 18N, WGS84.
