As part of the contribution to flood disaster risk reduction, it is important to identify and characterize flood areas, locations, and durations. Multiple satellite-based flood mapping and monitoring are an imperative process and the fundamental part of risk assessment in disaster risk management.

Abstract A nonparametric procedure to estimate the conditional probability that a nonstationary geostatistical process exceeds certain threshold value is proposed. The method consists of bootstrap algorithm combines simulation techniques with estimations trend and variability. local linear estimator, considering bandwidth matrix selected by takes spatial dependence into account, used trend. var...
