Abstract

A method includes classifying low-resolution pixels of a low-resolution satellite image of a geographic area to form an initial classification map and selecting at least one physically-consistent classification map of the low-resolution pixels based on the initial classification map. A water level associated with at least one of the physically-consistent classification maps is then used to identify a set of high-resolution pixels representing a perimeter of water in the geographic area.
