Germany - Elbe / Saale - Flood situation on 4 June 2013 - Area affected - Overview - P05

Description

Continued rainfall in recent days has led to heavy flooding in large parts of Germany. The local forces are supported by the Federal Police, the Bundeswehr and the Technische Hilfswerk. In Saxony-Anhalt, the Saale carries as much water as seldom before. In Halle, people are expecting the most severe flooding in 70 years. In places, the Saale has exceeded a level of 7.5 meters. The water areas shown in the map were derived from a TerraSAR-X scene taken on 4 June 2013 at 18:51 CET. RapidEye data with a spatial resolution of 5 meters serve as a background image. Please note that the flood situation in urban areas, under vegetation cover and in areas with steep gradients may not be fully captured due to radar geometry. This product was created within the framework contract “ZKI-DE” between the Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI) and the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR).
