Inundation Modeling in Data Scarce Regions

Ben-Haim, Zvika, Anisimov, Vladimir, Yonas, Aaron et al.

Understand

Flood forecasts are crucial for effective individual and governmental protective action.

  • The vast majority of flood-related casualties occur in developing countries, where providing spatially accurate forecasts is a challenge due to scarcity of data and lack of funding.
  • This paper describes an operational system providing flood extent forecast maps covering several flood-prone regions in India, with the goal of being sufficiently scalable and cost-efficient to facilitate the establishment of effective flood forecasting systems globally.
