By August 12, 2010, more than 1,600 people had perished, according to news reports, and the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) estimated that more than 14 million people had been affected in some way.For more information, visit NASA's Earth Observatory page: http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=45200

The ranges indicate the approximate interquartile range of the yield of boreholes that have been sited and drilled using appropriate techniques. Groundwater productivity is given in liters per second.Detailed description of the methodology, and a full list of data sources used to develop the layer can be found in the peer-reviewed paper available here: http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/7/2/024009/pdf The raster and a high resolution PDF file are available for download on the website of British Geological Survey (BGS): http://www.bgs.ac.uk/research/groundwater/international/africanGroundwater/mapsDownload.html
