Impact Assessment of Flood on Agricultural Land Using Cloud-Based Computing Platform in Kosi River Basin, North Bihar, India
Flooding is a major natural disaster in the Indian state of Bihar. The geographical setup of North Bihar increases the risk of floods and makes the region flood-prone. Recurring flood events in Bihar cause substantial loss of life and property every year. Rapid urbanization, deforestation, infrastructure development and erratic rainfall are the main causes of frequent floods in North Bihar. Public availability of geospatial datasets and free access to cloud-based geo-computing platform such as Google Earth Engine (GEE) are being commonly utilized for monitoring of flood events. The present work is aimed to examine the flood extent of the Kosi River Basin, Bihar and their impact on agricultural land using Sentinel-1 microwave and Sentinel-2A/B optical images. In this study, we found that a large portion of the Kosi River Basin was flooded during the monsoon season of 2020 and 2021. The inundation map has been prepared to visualize the extent of the flood, and it is expected that the results of the study can be used to inform decision-making by policymakers and other stakeholders to prioritize their efforts towards reducing the impact of floods and provide timely relief.
