A new image from the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite, taken on 17 April, utilizes a false color composite to clearly depict the flooded areas in turquoise, contrasting with red patches that show vegetation.
The image can be viewed in full 10 m resolution, allowing detailed observation of the flood's impact.
Sentinel-2 satellites are vital for monitoring and managing such disasters, providing essential data that supports the accurate and timely assessment of flood extent and severity.
