Flood depth
Observed, modeled, or assessed floodwater depth at a location for an event and observation time.
Sources that carry it
3 sourcesGlobal commercial flood-event data product combining SAR observations, auxiliary data, algorithms, and machine learning. It publishes frequently updated event extent and post-peak maximum flood extent and depth at building level. Customers can browse and download deliverables in the ICEYE Solutions Suite Event Intelligence Hub, query deliverables through the ISS API, or receive the same product through partner integrations. This is observed/model-assisted event data, not a probabilistic hazard map.
Commercial standing event-response catalogue of selected major flood footprints. JBA monitors global conditions and publishes event commentary, reports, and footprints; documented footprint files are available through its Client Portal or by request to its event-response address. The Storm Henk example contains modelled event extent and depth derived from JBA hazard maps, so this Source must not be described as direct satellite-observed inundation.
FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer flood-hazard-area layer provides current effective flood zone, Special Flood Hazard Area, base-flood-elevation, depth, velocity, reversion, study, and source-citation attributes for buyer-selected locations. FEMA offers public GIS web services and county/state downloads; Datastruct's protected hosted adapter is an exact point-in-polygon integration of S_FLD_HAZ_AR and preserves the existing production Source TypeID.
