Summary

Description
English: Emilia-Romagna, an Italian region known for its rich history and culture, is being devastated by unprecedented floods which started in mid-May 2023.

Heavy rains led to the overflow of twenty-three rivers across the region, causing widespread damage and displacing more than 30,000 residents. This catastrophic event claimed the lives of 14 people, significantly impacted nearly a million people, and resulted in an estimated €5 billion in damages.

In the aftermath, the European Union swiftly responded by activating the EU Civil Protection Mechanism and mobilising aid from multiple Member States to assist Italy in its recovery efforts.

The Rapid Mapping module of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS) has produced detailed delineation maps of the flooded areas. This data visualisation, based on CEMS data, shows the extent of the flooded areas by combining the data of 18 May and 20 May.
