This map illustrates satellite detected flood water
over the flood affected areas in Hue province, Vietnam (depicted in red). Flood water analysis was made using MODIS Terra & Aqua data recorded from 12-14 October 2007, however thick cloud cover
has prevented a complete analysis. Additional pre-flood MODIS data from September 2007 (depicted in blue) was used in this analysis. This flood detection is a preliminary analysis & has not yet
been validated in the field.
