  • Abstract
    After the dramatic flash floods, the French Civil Defence triggered the International Charter "Space and Major Disasters" on the 9th of September 2002. Images from the different satellites of the SPOT constellation were exploited in order to provide flood extent and flood impact products. The results highlight the benefits of the SWIR channel and the VHR SPOT sensors and these over a large swath.
