Flood Susceptibility Map Over Europe benefiting from the latest high-resolution satellite observations

General Description

This dataset provides high-resolution flood susceptibility maps (FSM) over Europe, delivered in Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) format.

The maps represent a probabilistic assessment of flood susceptibility by integrating dynamic variables: soil moisture, precipitation and AlphaEarth foundation model embeddings (64 features). The dataset supports disaster risk assessment, flood hazard mapping, and spatial planning, enabling consistent and comparable analysis across the Europe.
