Flood detection and monitoringBackground
•Rapidly updated satellite rainfall estimations at the geostationary scale – one of the tools to estimate floods• Benefits are more precise mesoscale and global scale weather forecasts, better monitoring of for instance flash floods, storm-scale events (See also Satmanu Manual, http://www.knmi.nl/satrep SatRep Manual, Case Studies, Catastrophic cases, 06-13 Aug 2002 Flooding over central Europe)
BUT• MSG SEVIRI channels can also be used to monitor the extent of floods• Channels 1-3 (0.6, 0.8 and 1.6µm) and the HRV are the basic channels for flood detection • Vegetation index (channels 0.6 and 0.8 µm) of AVHRR like instruments has been used traditionally for flood detection.• SEVIRI offers some additional tools for floods – examples on following pages

ExampleFlooded rice fields in Italy 24th Apr 2003
Situation before: only MET-7 VIS available
- Some indication of flood can be seen South of Alps northeast of Italy

01.06.05 4
ExampleFlooded rice fields in Italy 24th Apr 2003
• SEVIRI 0.6µm channel 09:00 UTC
• Nothing much to be seen alone
![Page 5: 01.06.051 APPLICATIONS OF METEOSAT SECOND GENERATION (MSG) Flooding Author: Pirkko Pylkkö (Finnish Meteorological Institute) pirkko.pylkko@fmi.fi Jochen](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56649c9b5503460f94958e4f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
01.06.05 5
ExampleFlooded rice fields in Italy 24th Apr 2003
• SEVIRI 0.8 µm channel 09:00 UTC
• Flooded area can be seen pretty well
• This channel is reflecting vegetation very well and water is black

01.06.05 6
ExampleFlooded rice fields in Italy 24th Apr 2003
• SEVIRI 1.6 µm channel 09:00 UTC
• Flooding area visible even better than with 0.8
![Page 7: 01.06.051 APPLICATIONS OF METEOSAT SECOND GENERATION (MSG) Flooding Author: Pirkko Pylkkö (Finnish Meteorological Institute) pirkko.pylkko@fmi.fi Jochen](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56649c9b5503460f94958e4f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
01.06.05 7
ExampleFlooded rice fields in Italy 24th Apr 2003
• SEVIRI rgb combination of 1.6, 0.8 and 0.6µm channels 09:00 UTC
• Flooded area quite distinct, but the resolution – is there anything to correct that?

01.06.05 8
ExampleFlooded rice fields in Italy 24th Apr 2003
• SEVIRI HRV channel 11:00 UTC
• The resolution is now much better

01.06.05 9
ExampleFlooded rice fields in Italy 24th Apr 2003
• SEVIRI 1.6 combined twice with HRV channel 11:00 UTC
• This is giving the best resolution and detection
