Using LiDAR surveys to document floods: A case study of the 2008 Iowa flood, Journal of Hydrology
Can we use Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), an emergent remote sensing technology with wide applications, to document floods with high accuracy? To explore the feasibility of this application, we propose a method to extract distributed inundation depths from a LiDAR survey conducted during flooding.
