hydrological investigations in the rétköz, hungary
DESCRIPTION
In this research the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index was used to enhance and map the open water features in a Hungarian sample area. Two Landsat-7 ETM+ images from 23. April and 30. September 2000 were used to derive the final maps. The sample area is highly endangered by excess water inundation therefore the rapid mapping of water surfaces is necessary. As result the MNDWI can be used for quick mapping, the result maps matched the distrubution of water closely. Presented by Balázs Boglárka, assistant professor at Debrecen UniversityTRANSCRIPT

Intro ─ Remote Sensing in Mapping Surface Water
Different materials reflect differently at different wavelenghts
Widely used for surface analysing Opportunity to map surface water Monitor the dynamics of surface water Different methods to extract water features:
Single-band method – threshold? under/over-estimation
Multi-band methods (reflective differences between bands)
If-then-else logic tree (analysing signature among different
spectral bands, find differences, then use the tree)
Band-ratio approach – spectral indexes

Intro ─ Spectral indexes
Single number derived from an arithmetic operation NDVI = (NIR−Red)/(NIR+Red) NDWI McFeeters = (Green−NIR)/(Green+NIR) -1 ≤ NDWI ≤ 1
Threshold: 0
NDWI Gao= (NIR−SWIR)/(NIR+SWIR) water content of vegetation
canopy
MNDWI= (Green−SWIR)/(Green+SWIR)Threshold: 0, but more accurate results can be achieved by manual adjustment

Why could the NDWI be so important in Hungary? More than half is flatland Inundation hazard map of Hungary by Pálfai, I. (2003) 60% of the flatland is differently endangered by inundation
5% highly endangered 26% medium risk 29% low risk 40% barely endangered
