This map illustrates satellite-detected areas of damage and destruction in the Syrian cities of Homs, Aleppo, Hama, Deir Ez Zor, Ar Raqqa, and Daraa. Using satellite imagery from 2015, 2014, 2013, 2011, and 2010, UNITAR - UNOSAT created a damage site density index for affected areas in each city. City-wide analyses revealed a total of 13,778 affected structures in Homs, 14,034 in Aleppo, 5,233 in Hama, 3,416 in Deir Ez Zor, 1,601 in Ar Raqqa, and 966 in Daraa. The cities of Homs and Hama were not updated with 2015 imagery. This analysis was done of the REACH initiative for the U.S. Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance. This is a preliminary analysis & has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.
