Bangladesh: Satellite Monitoring & Event Situation
Track recent event signals and monitor Bangladesh from space — geolocated events, the most active areas, and satellite imagery in one place. Free to browse on the Delta Watchfloor.
Quick answer — what Off-Nadir Delta is
You can monitor Bangladesh from space on Off-Nadir Delta — viewing Sentinel-1 SAR and Sentinel-2 optical imagery, tracking any area over time with anomaly detection, and overlaying geolocated event signals (from global news media) and active fires. In the past 7 days, 31 event signals were recorded in Bangladesh, most in the kinetic category.

Why Analysts Watch Bangladesh From Space
Bangladesh hosts close to one million Rohingya refugees from Myanmar, living in 33 camps in Cox’s Bazar District, according to UNHCR. Its low-lying northeast floods in the summer monsoon — by 22 June 2022 about half of Sylhet’s croplands were under water, NASA reported — so radar that sees through monsoon cloud matters.
Typical monitoring angles
- Camp footprint and surrounding land-cover change in Cox’s Bazar District with Sentinel-2 time series
- Monsoon flood extent in Sylhet and the north-east with Sentinel-1 SAR
- Settlement and shoreline change on Bhasan Char, Noakhali district, with Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1
