Monitoring Flood Inundation Dynamics From Space
Abstract With the increasing intensity and frequency of flood events worldwide, the need for accurate and timely inundation mapping has never been more critical. Large‐scale flood extent estimations are vital for coordinating effective disaster response, facilitating recovery, and building future resilience.

ICESat‐2 Pointing Calibration and Geolocation Performance
ICESat‐2 science requirements are dependent on the accurate real‐time pointing control (i.e., geolocation control) and postprocessed geolocation knowledge of the laser altimeter surface returns. Prelaunch pointing alignment errors and postlaunch pointing

Monitoring Reservoir Storage Using SWOT Satellite Observations and a Reservoir Operation Model
Abstract Reservoirs play a critical role in water management, yet comprehensive and real‐time observations of reservoir storage remain limited, especially outside the U.S. Observations of two reservoir‐related attributes, Water Surface Elevation (WSE) and Surface Area (SA), which can be used to calculate reservoir storage change, are often ...

Two orders of wall‐to‐wall geographic data
Short Abstract The use of the term ‘wall‐to‐wall’ to describe geographically extensive data without any singular definition in the remote sensing and geographically related analysis. This work presents an assessment of the application of the term in the scientific literature. Abstract From personal observations of recent published works, the term “wall‐

Lead and Floe Detection From CryoSat‐2 Radar and ICESat‐2 Laser Altimetry
Abstract Differences in satellite sampling affect their ability to resolve small‐scale features over Arctic sea ice. For CryoSat‐2 (CS2) and ICESat‐2 (IS2) these differences are driven by geometric (footprint resolution) and radiometric (radar or laser) sampling.

Advancing Near‐Real‐Time Flood Inundation Mapping in Australia
Abstract Floods are the second‐most deadly natural hazard in Australia, following heatwaves. Monitoring flood extent and depth in near real‐time (NRT) is crucial to minimize loss of life and socio‐economic impacts. This study leverages advanced computing, data management systems, and high‐quality data, including river gauge data APIs and Australian ...
