Using #remotesensing in #IDP camps in NW #Syria @REACH_info mapped water catchment areas to identify #flood hazards
The map shows that there are 2500+ IDP shelters exposed to significant flash flooding hazards in the densely populated sub-district of northern Dana

How does detailed hydraulic modeling work?
In partnership w @UNOSAT the process follows rigorous steps:
-nationwide flood susceptibility mapping
- identification of priority areas
- shelter / settlement analysis (eg. building footprints)
- detailed hydraulic modeling

On top of this, REACH teams in Syria continuously updates multi-sectoral data on #needs & #vulnerabilities, and wider #humanitarian conditions, of communities living in the crisis-affected areas in Northern part of #Syria
This is the #Emergency Needs Tracking System
