Summary:

The Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, created these Flood Proxy Maps depicting areas of Quebec, Canada, that are likely flooded as a result of rain and rapid snow melt, shown by blue pixels. The maps were derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images from the Copernicus Sentinel-1 (April 26) satellites operated by the European Space Agency (ESA).

Suggested Usage:

Potentially flooding is shown by blue pixels.

This flood proxy map should be used as guidance to identify areas that are likely flooded, and may be less reliable over urban and vegetated areas.

Satellite/Sensor:

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) on European Space Agency's (ESA) Copernicus Sentinel-1A satellite

Resolution: 30 meters

Credits:

Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2019) analyzed by the NASA-JPL/Caltech ARIA team. This task was carried out at JPL funded by NASA Disasters Program.
