Syria: Satellite Monitoring & Event Situation
Track recent event signals and monitor Syria 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 Syria 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, 13 event signals were recorded in and around Syria, most in the kinetic category.

Most active areas
Event data powered by the GDELT Project. Figures cover the mapped region around Syria and update hourly. For situational awareness only — not for tracking or targeting individuals.
Why Analysts Watch Syria From Space
Syria has been documented from space through a decade of conflict: neighborhood-scale damage in Aleppo and Homs, displacement-camp growth along the northern border, and agricultural collapse and recovery in the wheat belt. Satellites remain the most reliable wide-area source.
Typical monitoring angles
- Urban damage and reconstruction tracked with SAR and optical change detection
- Displacement-camp footprint growth in the northwest border zone
- Wheat-belt harvest conditions in NDVI seasonal composites
Monitor Syria From Space
Off-Nadir Delta lets you watch Syria without any GIS software. View Sentinel-1 SAR (all-weather, day or night) and Sentinel-2 optical imagery, draw any area to build a time series with anomaly detection, and overlay active fires.
The Delta Watchfloor adds the event layer: geolocated signals in and around Syria, ranked by severity, that you can connect to satellite imagery in one tip-and-cue workflow.
