webfact Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 The Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISTDA) has released images, taken on August 24th by the Sentinel-1 satellite, of flooding covering 20,800 hectares of land in the north-eastern region of Thailand. More than 11,200 hectares of rice fields have been affected. The data from the satellite, which is monitoring the flood situation in the northeast, show that the areas affected are mainly located on both sides of the Chi and the Mun River basins, in parts of Khon Kaen, Chaiyaphum, Nakhon Ratchasima, Maha Sarakham, Buri Ram and Roi Et. To support GISTDA’s mission, the images and data from the satellite have been sent to various other agencies and adjustment of the satellite’s sensors will be undertaken by GISTDA, to enable even more accurate analysis and monitoring of areas prone to ongoing flooding.
