In 2010 the International Charter Space and Major Disasters was activated to record extensive floods in Slovenia. On obtained time series of medium resolution radar images (ENVISAT, RADARSAT-2) pixel-based water delineation and object-based classification were perfomed. In talks advantages and restrictions of these methods and their results were examined and compared. Important step in the integration of research and the wider public, working with the consequences and/or prevention against disasters was attained, and raising public awareness of the products of satellite systems at such events.

COBISS.SI-ID: 32534573Within the activation of International Charter on Space and Major Disasters following intensive rains in Slovenia between 17.–19.9. 2010, a time series of radar satellite images was obtained, and used to study flood dynamics in the surroundings of capital Ljubljana and on karstic fields, as well as local water retention and/or retreat. Radar images enabled satisfactory near-real-time comprehension of flood dynamics within wider natural environment, however not in urban areas. The final report summarizes the processing and results of all mappings in a larger area in central Slovenia.
