ML4Floods is an end-to-end ML pipeline for flood extent estimation: from data preprocessing, model training, model deployment to visualization. Here you can find the WorldFloodsV2🌊 dataset and trained models 🤗 for flood extent estimation in Sentinel-2 and Landsat.

Install

Install from pip:

pip install ml4floods

Install the latest version from GitHub:

pip install git+https://github.com/spaceml-org/ml4floods#egg=ml4floods

Docs

These tutorials may help you explore the datasets and models:

• Kherson Dam Break end-to-end flood extent map
• Run the model on time series of Sentinel-2 images
• Ingest data from Copernicus EMS
• ML-models step by step
  • Training
  • Inference on new data (a Sentinel-2 image)
  • Perf metrics

The WorldFloods database

The WorldFloods database contains 509 pairs of Sentinel-2 images and flood segmentation masks. It requires approximately 76GB of hard-disk storage.

The WorldFloods database and all pre-trained models are released under a Creative Commons non-commercial licence

To download the WorldFloods database or the pretrained flood segmentation models see the instructions to download the database.
