Germany - Elbe / Wittenberge - Flood situation on 9 June 2013 - Area affected - Detail - P28

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. The situation on the Elbe is still very tense. The level at the time of recording the satellite data in Wittenberge was 7.85 meters. To relieve the dikes, polders near the small town were flooded in the afternoon. The water areas shown in the map were analyzed using TerraSAR-X data (8.25 meters spatial resolution) from June 9, 2013 (recording time: 19:01 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).
