Risk-Guided Flood Segmentation from Optical Satellite Imagery Using NDWI Threshold Optimization and Segment Anything Model [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Accurate and timely flood extent mapping is essential for emergency response. Optical satellite imagery is widely used for rapid flood mapping due to its global coverage and free availability.

Hydraulic Modeling and Flood Mapping of Fogera Flood Plain:

, 2011
Nowadays, extraordinary floods are common many parts of Ethiopia causing a lot of losses to human lives as well as damage to property. Historically, Fogera/Dera flood plain has been vulnerable to flash flooding from rainfall, in particular of the Gumera catchment which passes in between the Fogera -Dera weredas.

Flood risk mapping [PDF]

, 2009
U ovom članku se razmatra metodologija kartiranja plavnih područja, šteta i rizika. Težište je na načinu određivanja sintetičkih funkcija potencijalne štete, koje se korite za definisanje očekivane godišnje štete, kao glavnog parametra za kvantifikovanje rizika od poplava. Metodologija je ilustrovana primerima iz naše prakse.

Toward Perception‐Native Electronic Skin: Bio‐Inspired In‐/Near‐Sensor and Neuromorphic Computing for Humanoid Robots

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Dense tactile streams from across the humanoid body converge on collide in a central wiring and data bottleneck. By relocating computation closer to and then into the skin itself, near‐ and in‐sensor architectures, together with neuromorphic computing, chart a path toward perception‐native electronic skin, in which the conversion of stimulus into ...

Mapping loneliness in Australia [PDF]

, 2005
Using national survey data, Michael Flood outlines patterns of loneliness, support and friendship and assesses who is most at risk of emotional and social isolation and who is socially supported and connected. The paper focuses on young adults aged 25 to

Liquid Metal Resistive Sensing Architectures for Measuring Diaphragm Strain Responses on Obstructed Surfaces

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A liquid metal‐based strain‐sensing architecture to measure the deformation of a circular diaphragm against obstructed surfaces is formulated using finite element modeling and confocal imaging to establish the mechanical framework and is utilized to control diaphragm‐induced confinement on a bead array, as validated by biomolecular loading level ...

Mapping current and future flood exposure using a 5 m flood model and climate change projections [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
Local stakeholders need information about areas exposed to potential flooding to manage increasing disaster risk. Moderate- and large-scale flood hazard mapping is often produced at a low spatial resolution, typically using only one source of flooding (e.

Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Mapping temporal extent of Chiang Mai floods using coupled 1-D and quasi 2-D floodplain inundation models [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2015
A coupling of a 1-D flood routing model and quasi 2-D floodplain inundation model is applied for mapping spacetime flood extent. The routing model is formulated based on a non-linear storage-discharge relationship which is converted from an observed ...
