Remotely sensed imagery is increasingly used by emergency managers to monitor and map the impact of flood events to support preparedness, response, and critical decision making throughout the flood event lifecycle. To reduce latency in delivery of imagery-derived information, ensure consistent and reliably derived map products, and facilitate processing of an increasing volume of remote sensing data-streams, automated flood mapping workflows are needed. The U.S. Geological Survey is facilitating the development and integration of machine-learning algorithms in collaboration with NASA, National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA), University of Alabama, and University of Illinois to create a workflow for rapidly...
