The Use of Sentinel-1 Time-Series Data to Improve Flood Monitoring in Arid Areas

Due to the similarity of the radar backscatter over open water and over sand surfaces a reliable near real-time flood mapping based on satellite radar sensors is usually not possible in arid areas. Within this study, an approach is presented to enhance the results of an automatic Sentinel-1 flood pr...
