| Abstract | For more than two decades, remotely sensed imagery has been used as a tool for delineating of the spatial extent of flooding and its impact over wide area with a cost effective manner in comparison to ground surveying. The aim of this article is to review previous attempts on flood damage assessment that used remotely sensed data and techniques. This paper is divided into three major sections. The first section focuses on the development of remote sensing techniques as a tool for assessing flood damages. The second section emphasizes the remote sensing techniques for estimating flood depth, which is the crucial indicator of flood hazard intensity. In order to estimate flood depth, a number of different approaches using remote sensing data (e.g., radiometry-depth relation, satellite altimetry and SAR interferometry) have been discussed. The last section highlights some of the past attempts for assessing flood damage to agricultural areas. |
