Description
Relative floodplain Inundation frequency map for the southeastern US based on multiple observations of inundation from Landsat satellite imagery.

Note that this approach is not well suited to areas having dense vegetation during winter months (e.g. Phragmites or Spartina marshes). In these areas, refer to the MHHW and 2 foot sea level rise layers to capture an improved visualization of inundation extent.
