Floods are among the most severe and impacting natural disasters. Their occurrence rate
and intensity have been significantly increasing worldwide in the last years due to climate …

Through-the-wall radar imaging (TWRI) allows police, fire and rescue personnel, first
responders, and defense forces to detect, identify, classify, and track the whereabouts of …

The recent launches of three fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) satellites
have shown that polarimetric radar imaging can provide abundant data on the Earth's …

Ageing stock and extreme weather events pose a threat to the safety of infrastructure
networks. In most countries, funding allocated to infrastructure management is insufficient to …

Climate change projections foresee an increasing number of intense precipitation events

This paper presents an automatic algorithm for map** floods. Its main characteristic is that
it can detect not only inundated bare soils, but also floodwater in urban areas. The synthetic …

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) tomography has been strongly developed in the last years
for the analysis at fine scale of data acquired by high-resolution interferometric SAR sensors …

Rapid damage assessment after natural disasters (eg, earthquakes) and violent conflicts
(eg, war-related destruction) is crucial for initiating effective emergency response actions …

Flooding is one of the most costly natural disasters and thus map**, modeling and
forecasting flood events at various temporal and spatial scales is important for any flood risk …
