This map illustrates cumulative Satellite-detected water using VIIRS in Pakistan between 1 July to 31 August 2022. Within the analyzed area of about 800,000 km2, a total of about 85 000 km2 of lands appear to be affected with flood waters amongst which 56 000 km2 are flooded croplands. Based on Wordpop population data and the maximum flood water coverage, at least 33 million people were potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas in July-August 2022.
