Description

The new, systematic Global Flood Monitoring (GFM) product of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service will provide a continuous monitoring of floods worldwide by immediately processing and analysing all incoming S-1 Interferometric Wide Swath data and making use of the data cube approach enabling a high product timeliness and the implementation of flood mapping algorithms that require data-driven model training. It integrates three independently developed flood mapping algorithms to improve the robustness and accuracy of the flood and water extent maps and to build a high degree of redundancy into the service.
