Maps and Data
This site
contains a collection of Maps and Data, that will be useful for relief,
rehabilitation and reconstruction efforts.
Interactive maps allows you to create your own custom
maps of Sri Lanka, using various data layers.
There is a vast array of
maps related to reconstruction, damage and destruction caused by the tsunami, maps on
relevant seasonal information including climate, and
extensive background maps of Sri Lanka with key social indicators.
The satellite map section acts as a portal to a large repository of
satellite maps before and after the event, including estimates of
inundation and damage. Some maps are useful to identify the changes to
the coastline. The data section is a
portal to data
related to damage caused by the tsunami, and other important statistics
available from a myriad of sources. Please note that this section will be
expanding in the coming weeks with more links. Charts & graphs is a starting point to visualizing some of the data available.
