the hague - The Red Cross calls on the Dutch to help map the floods affected Nepal, Bangladesh and India. According to the aid organization, in some cases, care providers do not know where affected villages are located or how they can come to bring goods. The Red Cross has therefore decided to ask for help.

Satellite images allow volunteers to sign roads, buildings, rivers and open spaces. 'There are lives at stake. It is therefore urgent. Everybody can do this. If people sit behind the computer for half an hour, we'll come to a close. We hope that the area will be mapped out as quickly as possible, 'said a spokesman for the Red Cross.

According to the organization, more than sixteen million people are affected by the great floods.
