. Remote sensing and hydrological models are one of the foremost tools for rapid and comprehensive study of flood hazards and disasters in any parts of the world. Current study is focused on severe 2018 Kerala flood, and is done using various remote sensing data, geospatial tools and combination of hydrological/hydrodynamic/topographical models. Flood mapping is done with pre and post floods remote sensing datasets. For pre-Flood analysis, Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) map was prepared on Google Earth Engine (GEE), using Sentinel-2 images for the period of Feb. 2017 to identify permanent water bodies. For post-Flood analysis, GEE was used to download the pre-processed and thermal noise removed Sentinel-1 SAR image for Aug. 9, 2018, Aug. 14 and Aug. 21, 2018 and flood maps were generated using this data. In addition to SAR data, probable flood inundation areas using topography-based flood inundation tool HAND (Height Above Nearest Drainage tool) was also utilized. Hydrological simulation was carried out for all 12 major river sub-basins of Kerala, where floods are reported. Indian Meteorological Department-Global Precipitation Measurement (IMD-GPM) gridded daily data is used as input meteorological data for hydrological simulations. The hydrological simulations results were verified using published Central Water Commission (CWC) reports and reservoirs data for India-WRIS. The hydrodynamic simulation was also performed for simulating the Idukki dam release data and flood condition in downstream areas. Overall, an integrated study and developed approach can be utilized by state and central water and disaster management agencies to develop flood early warning systems.
