..... Possible flood water obstruction of road+

This map illustrates probable standing floodwaters along the eastern bank of the Prut River inthe Cahul and Vulcanesti Districts of the Republicof Moldova, as well as the western bank of theriver in Romania. This flood analysis is based onFormosat-2 satellite imagery recorded on 22 July2010. Areas of potential / probable flooding withintowns and road / bridge obstacles have beenidentified and marked in the overview and insetfocus maps.Overall the flooding appears to be relativelycontained along this southern section of the PrutRiver, with limited numbers of potentiallyflooded/flood-affected buildings, primarily in theRepublic of Moldova. Transport routes appear tobe moderately affected with a number of potentialroad flooding sites along both sides of the Prut.There is suspected bridge damage along aninternational border crossing west of the city ofCahul, Moldova. The two international bridgeslinking Romania with the Moldovan city ofGiurgiulesti appear intact and fully operational.Please note that areas likely flooded with densevegetation cover have been marked in the mapwith a lower level of confidence because oflimitations in water detection with the satelliteimagery. Pre-flood water has been taken from aEuropean dataset derived from multiple sourcesand may not accurately reflect the current locationPrut River channel in some locations in the map.This flood assessment is a preliminary analysis &has not yet been validated in the field. Pleasesend ground feedback to UNITAR / UNOSAT.
