This is a category 5 Cyclone, the highest category and many deaths reported.
ReliefWeb map, March 13, shows that the Islands south of Port Vila should have been the more affected.

I see two islands of about 30 km x 30 km and smaller islands.
A mix of Bing and MapBox imagery can be used since cloudy imagery in various areas.

Vanuatu Archipel (800 km long) was severely hit by the Pam Cyclone. I started discussion with Dale about this. Not yet sure at this point if Red Cross will deploy.
We start to document for the islands hit and the imagery available.
I first look at the situation this morning, I saw dispersed residential areas not always connected by roads.
Preliminary infos
ReliefWeb as published March 12 a map of the probable path. I cannot load the pdf but we see the area that was probably hit.
