Hurricane Matthew left behind shocking devastation, and this map shows the scale of the destruction. The red dots on this map represent homes which were completely destroyed in the centre of Les Cayes, a commune with some 70 000 inhabitants. The map was produced by the EU Copernicus system, which is providing satellite images in order to help with the assessment of damage.
