Hurricane Irma, a Category 5 storm, has made its first landfall on the islands of the north-east Caribbean on 6 September. It is significantly strengthening becoming the most powerfulhurricane ever recorded in the Atlantic and following a path predicted to hit Puerto Rico, theDominican Republic, Haiti and Cuba. Over the next five days, heavy rain, very strong windsand storm surge could affect all of these areas.The present map shows the flood delineation in the area of Monte Cristi (DominicanRepublic, at the border with Haiti). The thematic layer has been derived from post-eventsatellite image using a semi-automatic approach. The estimated geometric accuracy is 10 mCE90 or better, from native positional accuracy of the background satellite image.
Products elaborated in this Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping activity are realized to the bestof our ability, within a very short time frame, optimising the available data and information. Allgeographic information has limitations due to scale, resolution, date and interpretation of theoriginal sources. The map and the information content are derived from satellite data withoutin situ validation. No liability concerning the contents or the use thereof is assumed by theproducer and by the European Union.Please be aware that the thematic accuracy might be lower in urban and forested areas durto inherent limitations of the SAR analysis technique.Map produced by SERTIT released by SERTIT (ODO).For the latest version of this map and related products visithttp://emergency.copernicus.eu/[email protected]© European UnionFor full Copyright notice visit http://emergency.copernicus.eu/mapping/ems/cite-copernicus-ems-mapping-portal
