Several zones seem to be inundated and have experienced an increase of standing waters. These zones are mainly agricultural M a n a m b o l o and/or swamps around the town of Maroantsetra. These waters seem to be the results of the recent heavy rain related also to the cyclone ENAWO-17 Ankofa which made landfall the 07 March 2017. It is likely that 15°24'0"S flood waters have been systematically underestimated 15°24'0"S Anjanavana along highly vegetated areas along main river banks and within built-up urban areas because of the special Mahalevona characteristics of the satellite data used. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in Andranofotsy the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR UNOSAT.
