Brief communication: Western Europe flood in 2021 – mapping agriculture flood exposure from synthetic aperture radar (SAR)

نویسندگان

چکیده

Abstract. In this communication, we present the exposure of agricultural lands to flooding caused by extreme precipitation in western Europe from 12 15 July 2021. Overlaying flood inundation maps derived near-real-time RAdar-Produced Inundation Diary (RAPID) system on Coordination information environment (CORINE) Land Cover map estimate a 1920 km2 area affected flooding, with 64 % representing land. Among inundated land, 36 is pastures while 34 arable Most found eastern France along Rhône River, southern Netherlands Meuse and Germany Rhine River.

Uncertainty in Calibrating Flood Propagation Models with Flood Boundaries Derived from Synthetic Aperture Radar Imagery

An instantaneous synthetic aperture radar (SAR) derived flood extent map helps retrieving the distributed conveyance parameters in one-dimensional flood routing models. These models are generally calibrated based on the sole use of ground data. This research aims to use earth observation (EO) data in order to establish a significant parameter retrieval strategy, providing an alternative model c...

Mapping by Airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (sar)

Using advanced SAR data from the Danish airborne SAR, EMISAR, a research project was initiated in 1998 as a collaboration between the Technical University of Denmark and the Danish National Survey and Cadastre to investigate the potential of using SAR data for production and updating of cartographic maps. The ultimate objective of the research is to be able to perform quickly and efficiently co...

Synthetic Aperture Radar in Europe

ollowing the successful Seasat project in 1978, the European Space Agency used advanced microwave radar techniques on the European Remote Sensing satellites ERS-1 (1991) and ERS-2 (1995) to provide global and repetitive observations, irrespective of cloud or sunlight conditions, for the scientific study of the Earth’s environment. The ERS synthetic aperture radars (SARs) demonstrated for the fi...

Towards Operational Flood Mapping with Satellite Sar

Space-borne SAR sensors are of special interest for mapping flood extent due to the possibility to acquire images in all weather conditions. In this article we review the SAR part of an operational flood mapping service. An operational service requires fully automatic methods that are able to process any available SAR data in near-real time. Mapping flood with SAR requires different approaches ...
