Floods are a major cause of loss of lives, destruction of infrastructure, and massive damage
to a country's economy. Floods, being natural disasters, cannot be prevented completely; …

Over the past decades, the scientific community has made significant efforts to simulate
flooding conditions using a variety of complex physically based models. Despite all …

This article presents an automated Sentinel-1-based processing chain designed for flood
detection and monitoring in near-real-time (NRT). Since no user intervention is required at …

Surface water storage and fluxes in rivers, lakes, reservoirs and wetlands are currently
poorly observed at the global scale, even though they represent major components of the …

Floods are the most frequent of natural disasters, affecting millions of people across the
globe every year. The anticipation and forecasting of floods at the global scale is crucial to …

Flash floods have long been common in Asian cities, with recent increases in urbanization
and extreme rainfall driving increasingly severe and frequent events. Floods in urban areas …

We present a new methodology for rapid flood mapping exploiting Sentinel-1 synthetic
aperture radar data. In particular, we propose the usage of ground range detected (GRD) …

A novel automated approach for mapping nonurban flood extents using satellite-based
Sentinel-1C-band SAR data is presented and applied in the Republic of Ireland. The …

Floods are some of the most serious and devastating natural hazards on earth, bringing
huge threats to lives, properties, and living environments. Rapid delineation of the spatial …

Flood is one of the most disruptive natural hazards, responsible for loss of lives and damage
to properties. A number of cities are subject to monsoons influences and hence face the …
