government-declared “Civilian Safe Zone”

government-declared “Civilian Safe Zone” (CSZ) in the Mulattivu district of northern approximately 2,850 newly erected IDP shelter structures within the area designated higher. It is important to note that no newly erected IDP shelter structures were at a spatial resolution of approximately 0.5 meters. This is an initial assessment

Because of incomplete imagery coverage over northern CSZ, no IDP density analysis was done. high probability total IDP structure count
Sri Lanka: There are clear indications that thousands of IDPS have moved into the PC9. This represents a minimum increase of over 100% from the total building count detected in the southern half of CSZ. There are several possible impact crater sites northern half of the CSZ between 5 & 19 February 2009. A satellite-derived within CSZ of 2,600 as of 5/2/09.
