What is it about?
The Geomorphic Flood Index (GFI) is one of the most useful classifiers to generate inundation maps. Three main objectives are addressed in this study: (1) extend the GFI classifier to predict flood extent maps for uncalibrated rainfall depths, which will enhance early warning models for better risk assessments of extreme events; (2) enhance the accuracy of the simulated inundation maps using different calibration methods; and (3) investigate the performance of the GFI in various terrains with different resolutions.
