Myanmar Flood Impact Assessment for June 2025

An estimated 224,615 people and 158,413 hectares of cropland were affected by a flood in Myanmar on June 5, 2025. WFP’s Automated Disaster Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) system collected and mapped this geospatial and socio-economic information following the sudden-onset emergency. The dataset was last updated on May 21, 2026.

Use Cases

• Estimate population displacement and humanitarian needs based on the reported number of affected people.
• Assess agricultural and food security impacts based on the reported area of affected cropland.
• Model flood risk and vulnerability for future disaster preparedness planning in the region.
• Coordinate emergency response and resource allocation using the geospatial mapping data.

Strengths

• Provides specific impact figures: 224,615 affected people and 158,413 hectares of affected cropland.
• Data is produced by an operational UN system (WFP ADAM) for humanitarian emergencies.
• Dataset has a clear temporal anchor point for the event: June 5, 2025.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and spatial resolution of the underlying GEOTIFF data are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic and temporal bias inherent to the specific disaster event and reporting system.
