Since the start of the flooding, the ANADIA project has followed the extension of the flooded areas in Niamey, Niger Capital city, through the analysis of Sentinel 2 satellite images at a resolution of 10 meters acquired on the dates of August 16, September 5, September 10 and September 15, 2020. The classification of flooded areas was carried out using the NDFI index (Normalized Difference Flooding Index). The maximum flooded area was observed on September 10 and subsequently a slow decline began.
