The map shoes the region around Kyauktan with its normal water level derived from LANDSAT-7 ETM of November 7,2000 and inundated areas deducted from TerraSAR-X radar satellite imagery of May 8,2008. Inundated areas may also contain regions which were covered by water before the disaster due to the prevalence of wet-rice cultivation. The results are superimposed on LANDSAT-7 ETM imagery of November 7, 2000.
