This map provides an overview of satellite detected waters along the coastline of Quang Ninh Province, northern Vietnam. Due to continuous rainfall, a notable increase in inundated areas occurred within this region. Using satellite imagery acquired 02 August 2015 and 28 March 2015, UNITAR-UNOSAT identified approximately 4,731 hectares of flood affected land within the analyzed extent. Several flooded areas are in close proximity to Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR-UNOSAT.
