#Spain's Valencia region grappling with #devastating#flash#floods that have claimed over 200 lives and many more missing. Unprecedented #rainfall submerged entire towns, leaving thousands without basic necessities. At @EOI_lab of @vtgeosciences of @VT_Science and @UNUINWEH, we leverage cutting-edge @AI and #satellite intelligence to create actionable data supporting rescue operations.
211 muertos 💔 en la #DANA
y 1.900 desaparecidos 🇪🇸
Y una #INUNDACIÓN terrible que ha convertido a #Valencia en un dantesco lodazal fotografiado por el #Landsat de la @NASA el 30 octubre 2024
Ahora URGE atender a Víctimas y Rescatar DESAPARECIDOS luego…
