Support system for local water planning: flood detections using remote sensing in Honduras

This dataset contains spatial surfaces with the number of flooding events detected per year using satellite imagery in Honduras between 2017 and 2022. In addition, the accumulated annual flood events detected for the analyzed six-year period is also published. They are classified into the following three (3) classes according to the number of events detected:

1: one flood event, 2: two flood events, and 3: three or more flood events.

The data was elaborated under the project named ‘Water Management Activity: Appropriation of the “Agua de Honduras” platform by local and national stakeholders to improve country capacities in water resource planning in Honduras’, an initiative funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
