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 dueto inherent limitations of the SAR analysis techniqueMap produced by SIRS released by e-GEOS (ODO).For the latest version of this map and related products visithttp://emergency.copernicus.eu/mapping/list-of-components/[email protected]© European UnionFor full Copyright notice visit http://emergency.copernicus.eu/mapping/ems/cite-copernicus-ems-mapping-portal
