In 2019, The Midwestern Floods, AKA Great Floods, affected 14 million people in the Midwestern and Southern United States. To conduct an analysis of its impact, a flood mapping and landcover inundation was performed in St. Louis, Missouri, one of the areas most affected during the flood. <\/span>\u00a0Typically, optical imagery supports performing visual interpretation or\u00a0 identifying changes. However, optical imagery is not helpful when the areas of interest are cloud covered, as is the case in this scenario. This is where an alternative source, like radar, becomes effective.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Radar? <\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data provides a consistent (unobscured by cloud) view of the properties and shape of the earth\u2019s surface.
