Flood hazard delineation in Greater Dhaka, Bangladesh using an integrated GIS and remote sensing approach

The objective of this paper is to delineate flood hazard areas for the greatest flood of 1998 in Greater Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. Multi-date RADARSAT Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Geographical Information System (GIS) data were used for this purpose. Flood frequency and floodwater dept...
