Abstract
A method for extracting urban flood inundation extent based on remote sensing images includes: acquiring and preprocessing a Fengyun-4 satellite remote sensing image to obtain a preprocessed remote sensing image, and dividing the preprocessed remote sensing image into a thin cloud area and a thick cloud area; removing thin clouds and thick clouds in the preprocessed remote sensing image; extracting a first water body area from the cloud-removed remote sensing image to obtain a first urban inundation extent; acquiring a radar image at a same region and a same time as the remote sensing image, and extracting a second water body area from the radar image to obtain a second urban inundation extent; and training a super-resolution convolutional neural network according to the first urban inundation extent and the second urban inundation extent, and using a trained super-resolution convolutional neural network to obtain a reconstructed higher-resolution urban flood inundation extent.
