Use of Impervious Surface Data Obtained from Remote Sensing in Distributed Hydrological Modeling of Urban Areas Vrije Universiteit Brussel
While the increase of impervious surface cover in urbanized areas has a clear impact on urban hydrological processes, the relationship between flood conditions and urban development has been poorly studied. This chapter focuses on a case study demonstrating the impact of different remote sensing methods for characterizing the distribution of impervious surfaces on runoff estimation, and how this affects the assessment of peak discharges in an ...
