The Flooding in Serbia
By Sunday, May 18th, at least 33 people had died and tens of thousands have been evacuated in Serbia and Bosnia
during three days of torrential rains that fed the most intense flooding the region has seen since records began to be
kept more than a century ago.
For now, the worst of the waters have receded, but with temperatures in the mid-80s and rising, concerns are now
shifting to an almost inevitable outbreak of disease in the coming weeks. Contaminated water has covered homes,
towns and fields, turning much of Serbia's most fertile agricultural region into a poisonous stew of toxic chemicals,
rotting carcasses and disease-carrying insects. So far, there have been no epidemic outbreaks, the health minister
said, but that will almost certainly change - intestinal ailments, respiratory infections, skin diseases, hepatitis, perhaps
worse.
Still, Serbia's interior minister, Nebojsa Stefanovic, on the job just three weeks, said he was proud of the local teams'
work in pumping water, evacuating citizens and building barricades. "We have managed to stop three rivers in their
tracks," he said. Now, though, the hard work begins. At least 2,100 miles of roads have been damaged, the minister
said, plus untold numbers of homes, bridges, rail lines, schools, hospitals. It will take years, and billions of dollars, to
rebuild.
LandScan is a powerful, 1km resolution global population database
that utilizes satellite imagery, land cover data, topographic data,
roads, census data and other elements to create a record of ambient
population data.
The LandScan database is a unique and invaluable data source that
supports a wide variety of disciplines from risk analysis and disease
modeling to telecommunications and emergency response
management.
