FLOOD FORECASTING METHOD BASIS AS FLOOD MONITORING PROGRESS OF MEKONG RIVER [PDF]
Abstract. In this paper, used MODIS satellite image (MOD13) for monitoring the progress of flood in Mekong River Basin and testing the flood forecasting method for the Mekong Delta in flooding stage of 2015. The results showed that (80% reliability): MODIS image can be used to monitor the progress of flood in large areas of the Mekong River Basin ...
