Seasonal cold fronts have brought more rain to several municipalities of Chiapas, in Mexico, which are suffering from the aftermath of Hurricane's Eta and Iota. This has caused flooding and landslides in Ixhuatan, Matzam, Tacuba and Juan de Grijalva. The extent of the landslides are not yet known, as access to some rural communities by road has been cut off.

In recent years, the frequency and severity of natural hazards has increased dramatically. This development has escalated the risk of disasters and their devastating impact on the environment and communities around the world. Earth observation (EO) data has the potential to mitigate the risks of disasters and support all phases of the disaster management cycle.
