Abstract: Remote sensing and social sensing for flood mapping is provided by identifying where floodwater is present in an image of a location affected by a flooding event; identifying a social media post posted on a social media platform from the location and associated with the flooding event; and overlaying the image with the social media post. In some embodiments, the remote and social sensing includes one or more of: generating a permanent water mask identifying where permanent water is located at the location, and applying the permanent water mask to the image to differentiate the floodwater from permanent water for the location; identifying where the social media post was posted from; and overlaying the image with the social media post includes positioning a photograph included in the social media post for display with the image where a subject of the photograph is located at the location.
