Explain the technology
How do satellites tell you where flooding will happen?
- Searching knowledge…
Radar sees through cloud
Which is when flooding actually happens.
Height decides where water goes
A few centimetres changes which street floods.
History shows the pattern
The same ground has flooded before.
Radar sees through cloud and at night, which is when floods happen. It measures where water is standing, and the same passes over years show which ground floods first.
Height data turns that into a model of where water will go next.
