Fantastic article about applications of flood mapping. I’m so excited about this! The potential is huge. Can’t find the original post this came from, please let me know if it was yours (lost in scrolling about 5 minutes ago). https://www.geospatialworld.net/prime/interviews/satellite-images-mitigate-flood-impacts/

I am working on using natural language processing to detect urban flash flood events in local newspaper reports and map impacts at street/building level. I'd be really interested to hear from anyone who might have uses for this data in their work. For more details see:

The new Historical #Flood Events data layer (HFE) is now LIVE in #Canada! And updated continuously using media records.

"With over 1400 flood events documented in over 7000 locations, the #NRCan Historical Flood Events data layer provides an accessible way to view the who, what, when, and where of historical flood events in Canada."
