Flood risk and extent analysis
Map flood extent and assess risk zones with satellite data, protecting assets and supporting emergency response.
How EOS RayVision supports strategic flood risk assessment
Rapid flood mapping
Core benefit:
Delineate current flood extent, water depth estimates, and affected areas quickly during active events.
Asset risk assessment
Core benefit:
Identify buildings, infrastructure, cropland, and populations within flood zones for damage estimation.
Historical flood analysis
Core benefit:
Study past flood events, recurrence patterns, and seasonal inundation for improved planning and modeling.
Emergency response support
Core benefit:
Provide rapid flood boundary maps to emergency teams for evacuation routing and resource deployment.

FAQ
How quickly can you map an actively developing flood event?
Up to 24 hours after satellite pass, depending on tasking priority and processing queue.
How do you separate flood water from rivers?
EOS RayVision uses baseline water maps and elevation data to distinguish normal water from flood extent.
What about floods under tree canopy?
SAR can detect some under-canopy flooding, but dense vegetation limits detection. We flag uncertain areas.
Can you predict future flood risk or only map current events?
We map historical and current floods. Predictive modeling by EOS RayVision requires additional hydrological terrain data and model training and calibration for specific locations.
