Flood Damage Assessment (FDA)

SAR satellites are capable of all-weather ground observations, making it possible to quickly grasp the presence or absence of flood damage over a wider area regardless of the situation. In addition, by utilizing advanced analysis methods such as AI technology, it is possible to identify the extent of impact on facilities such as roads and buildings.

Flood damage evaluation service for disaster response that assesses inundation area, inundation depth, and damage to roads and buildings. In a disaster, it is necessary to promptly respond to the damage across a wide area based on accurate and precise primary information. Unlike conventional observation methods using optical satellites and airplanes/drones, SAR satellites enable all-weather ground observation and can quickly determine the presence or absence of inundation damage in a wider area. Furthermore, utilizing the most advanced analysis methods such as AI technology, FDA can identify the range of impact on facilities such as roads and buildings.
