Data Assimilation
Research interests
I am interested in urban flood detection using Synthetic Aperture Radar, enabling detection of flooding on a 24/7 basis for operational flood incident management and data assimilation of flood extents into flood forecasting models. I work with Sentinel-1 and WorldDEM data to detect urban flooding at high resolution on a global basis.
