The Al Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan is situated approx. 12km from the Syrian border and in close proximity to the city ofAl Mafraq (10 km). Due to heavy rainfall in the region parts ofthe Zaatari camp are affected by flooding. The map shows theflood situation derived by semi-automatic image analysis ofTerraSAR-X data acquired on January 10, 2013 at 03:38:49UTC. Furthermore basic reference information, digitized onthe basis of WorldView-2 satellite data acquired on January03, 2013, at 08:52:52 UTC, is depicted. The contour lineswere derived from ASTER GDEM 2 data (vertical accuracy +/-6m). For a more detailed view on the flood situation, parts ofthe camp area are also shown in the zoom boxes. The resultsof the image interpretation and analysis have not beenvalidated in the field.WorldView-2 satellite data acquired on January 03, 2013, isused as backdrop. Please note that flood waters in settlementareas might not be fully captured and the water extent mightbe underestimated due to sensor characteristics. Thusespecially shallow water bodies might not be fully captured.
