Water events are the most frequent and costliest climate disasters around the world. In the U.S., an estimated 127 million people who live in coastal areas are at risk of substantial home damage from hurricanes or flooding. In flood emergency management, timely and effective spatial decision-making and intelligent routing depend on flood depth information at a fine spatiotemporal scale. In this paper, crowdsourcing is utilized to collect photos of submerged stop signs, and pair each photo with…

A near real-time flood-mapping approach by integrating social media and post-event satellite imagery
TLDR
Results indicate that, by adding the wetness information from post-event satellite observations, the proposed model could provide near real- time flood probability distribution with real-time social media, which is of great importance for emergency responders to quickly identify areas in need of immediate attention.
