How to create a flood map

  1. 1

    Upload Your Aerial Image

    Start by uploading a satellite, drone, or other aerial image of the area you want to analyze. High-resolution images work best.

  2. 2

    Describe Your Request

    In the text prompt, tell the AI what you want it to do. For example, type 'Map the flooded areas' or 'Outline the water in this image'.

  3. 3

    Generate Your Flood Map

    Our AI will process the image based on your prompt, identify the water boundaries, and create a visual map of the flood's extent.

  4. 4

    Download Your Analysis

    Your flood extent map is ready to download as a watermark-free, high-resolution PNG file. Use it for analysis, reporting, or planning.

Get critical information fast when every second counts. Our AI tool processes aerial imagery from satellites or drones to produce flood extent maps in moments, not hours. This speed allows emergency response teams, government agencies, and infrastructure managers to gain immediate situational awareness. By simply uploading an image of an affected area, you can bypass traditional, time-consuming analysis methods. This rapid assessment helps in deploying resources efficiently and making informed decisions to protect communities and vital assets during a crisis.

Our AI is trained to precisely identify and delineate the boundaries between land and water, even in complex scenarios with partial submersion or challenging lighting. This accuracy is key for creating reliable flood maps that reflect the true scope of an inundation event. Use these detailed visualizations for damage assessments, insurance claim processing, or environmental impact studies. The clarity provided by the AI-driven analysis ensures that you are working with trustworthy data for your planning and response efforts, leading to more effective outcomes.
