    This map illustrates satellite-detected buildingdamage assessment as of 15 February 2018,over the eastern part of the city of Nuku-alofa andthe town of Popua, Tongatapu Island, Tonga,following the passage of the tropical cycloneGITA-18. The analysis was conducted using apost-event Pleiades image as of 15 February2018 and a pre-event WorldView-3 image as of12 January 2018. UNITAR-UNOSAT analysisidentified 637 potentially damaged structureswithin the area. According to the pre-eventbuilding footprints provided by Open Street Map,this represents 27% of the total number ofbuildings analyzed. Some areas have beenaffected by floods, such as the coast east ofNuku-alofa and the town of Popua. Here,buildings surrounded by floodwater areconsidered as potentially damaged. Overall, thesatellite detected damage level was severe, inthis part of the island. This is a preliminaryanalysis and has not yet been validated in thefield.
