Abstract

The study of floods by remote sensing data and GIS technology is necessary for the rapid detection of floods in the populated areas, provision of an early evacuation of the population and implementing correct response measures. This paper has been dedicated to studying the methodology of flood mapping by GIS technology on the basis of processing the taken by Earth observation satellite “AZERSKY/SPOT-6” for the period of 2014-2016. Flood-prone areas at river Kura, Khrami and Debed were identified using software package ENVI 5.2 and ArcGIS version 10.4.1. The initial images have been received in the project «Promotion of Earth remote surveillance services for the sake of sustainable development of Azerbaijan» of Azercosmos OJSCo. This research has been carried out on the basis of software and methodological support of «Processing of the aerospace information» sector of «Aerospace Monitoring» within «Aerospace Monitoring of the Environment» department of National Aviation Academy.
