My colleague Julia Boeck's master thesis on designing a visual dashboard for emergency response has been nominated for the DMEA sparks Award. Please watch her video at https://youtu.be/6V7rrUROAqc?si=loprMUouFCUhfNZe and upvote if you like it (which counts towards the audience award).

My apologies for the delay, after I announced the posting of the UNOSAT link for South #sudan yesterday, there's a lot going on right now, uploads get corrected often, it's impossible to follow every new press release (being no-bot).

Please feel free to contact me, if you need specific data.

So here's the UNOSAT direct link: the map illustrates cumulative satellite-detected #water using VIIRS in South Sudan between 15 to 19 March 2025
