Published purpose

This project aims to develop innovative approaches using Earth observation data for modeling and mapping floods, the most frequent and damaging natural disaster in Canada. By integrating optical and radar satellite imagery, this project will generate near-real-time flood boundaries and flood maps. These results will help decision-makers to have a global and current vision of the risk in order to take preventive action and optimize interventions, and for insurance companies to better evaluate risks for their clients.
