Applications of Open-Access Remotely Sensed Data for Flood Modelling and Mapping in Developing Regions

Applications of Open-Access Remotely Sensed Data for Flood Modelling and Mapping in Developing Regions

Flood modelling and mapping typically entail flood frequency estimation, hydrodynamic modelling and inundation mapping, which require specific datasets that are often unavailable in developing regions due to financial, logistical, technical and organizational challenges. This review discusses fluvia...
