WHAT ARE THE KEY POINTS OF WAMM ? “cloud piercing capability” SAR DETECTS THE EXTENT OF FLOODED AREAS DURING NIGHT AND CLOUDY CONDITIONS Soil Moisture Information BASED ON SAR IMAGERY (Synthetic Aperture Radar) h1h1 h2h2 h3h3 h4 IS TO ENHANCE FLOOD FORECASTING: Innovative monitors SMALL PORTABLE SENSORS FOR FAST INSTALLATION OF FLOOD EXTENTS

AIMS OF THE WAMM PROJECT Provide river authorities, civil protection bodies, etc with a DSS allowing for: 1. Facilitate flood warning alarms 2. Improve management of floods 3. Provide reliable flood defence programs 4. Plan remediation measures to account for climatic change
