Successful flood recovery and evacuation require access to reliable flood depth information.
Most existing flood mapping tools do not provide real-time flood maps of inundated streets in
and around residential areas. In this paper, a deep convolutional network is used to
determine flood depth with high spatial resolution by analyzing crowdsourced images of
submerged traffic signs. Testing the model on photos from a recent flood in the US and
Canada yields a mean absolute error of 6.978 in., which is on par with previous studies, thus …
Successful flood recovery and evacuation require access to reliable flood depth information. Most existing flood mapping tools do not provide real-time flood maps of inundated streets in and around residential areas. In this paper, a deep convolutional network is used to determine flood depth with high spatial resolution by analyzing crowdsourced images of submerged traffic signs. Testing the model on photos from a recent flood in the U.S. and Canada yields a mean absolute error of 6.978 in., which is on par with previous studies, thus demonstrating the applicability of this approach to low-cost, accurate, and real-time flood risk mapping.
