2 of 25

Tasks:

Delineate floodplains of the Amur River basin;

Suggest an effective method of satellite monitoring of flood on large rivers using free remote sensing data;

Estimate the scale of catastrophic flood in 2013;

Substantiate conducting of functional zoning for regulating the land use of these areas

2

Research purpose:

Suggest ways to use remote sensing data to monitor the floodplains

3 of 25

1) Delineation of the floodplain by calculation on the basis of a digital elevation model (DEM)�����2) Use of geological maps, selection of modern� Quaternary deposits������3) Expert interpretation using detailed topographic maps and remote sensing data

Methods and sources for delineation of floodplains:

Geological maps of Trans Baikal region 1992 1:500000, fragment of the confluence rivers

Digital elevation model of the Amur river basin

Floodplain near the confluence of the Amur and Burea rivers (topographic maps and Landsat-7)

3 прорыва дамб "вернули" поймам Амура 5,5 кубокилометров противопаводковой емкости

Сейчас все дамбы в КНР снижают естественную противопаводковую емкость приблизительно на 30 - 40 кубокилометров, а после завершения строительства новых дамб эта цифра увеличится

Results and conclusions

Carried out space monitoring floods (2013) using Geo-information system. It allows to collect, keep and analyze data on the floods and other natural processes occurring in floodplains

Considered basic methods of floodplain delineation. Delineated all floodplains of large river flows in the Amur basin, where it’s necessary to conduct functional zoning and regulate the use of these areas

Basic parameters (characteristics) of floodplains were determined and further scientific research were suggested

Results and conclusions

Created GIS database including a large number of satellite images, statistical data, topographic and thematic maps, which can be used in modeling and analyzing of various natural phenomena on the rivers of the Amur basin.

Determined specific characteristics of flood stream. Estimated scale of catastrophic flood in 2013 as well as transformation of territories.

Suggested effective method of satellite monitoring of flood on large rivers using free remote sensing data.
