The surface water dynamics product enables customers to monitor rivers, streams, lakes or reservoirs in a timely manner, allowing to evaluate the extent, intra-annual variations, as well as seasonal or annual changes.
With over a decade of experience in EO-based surface water mapping, GeoVille applies leading-edge technology for extracting water information from both optical & weather-independent radar imagery, anywhere on the globe.

EO data allows floods to be mapped and flood extent & impacts to be evaluated in near real-time, supporting immediate flood response actions. Flood risk maps are derived from long-term EO time series & topographic information extracted from Digital Elevation Models to enhance flood preparedness and planning of preventive measures.
GeoVille’s unique water detection methodology, a leading-edge innovation, allows extracting flooded areas from both optical & weather-independent radar imagery. Flood impacts to people as well as anthropogenic and natural assets are assessed by combining flood maps with land use and population distribution data.

Understanding surface soil moisture content helps farmers optimising crop productivity, improve irrigation control, and alert government authorities and insurance companies about drought conditions. Typical uses range from the field to the national or continental scale, with products considered at various spatial resolutions.
GeoVille offers a unique downscaled soil moisture product at 20m spatial resolution, depicting soil moisture variability even within a given field.

Wetlands are among the planet's most productive ecosystems, providing several ecosystem services including nutrition, flood control and protection, and support for biodiversity.
The wetland inventory product enables cost-effective monitoring of wetland areas across large regions. This aids in the monitoring of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) indicator 6.6.1 on the extent of water-related ecosystems as well as the assessment of the health of wetland systems through integrated water resource management.
Combining the developments & expertise from more than eight large-scale wetland-related activities allowed us to develop a unique solution on the foundation of optical & SAR imagery to support customers worldwide with wetland information products (e.g., extent, habitat type).

The combination of hydrological parameters, land use, land cover, & changes is crucial for hydrological modelling applications & integrated water resource management to improve model predictions or as a tool for flood risk assessment.
GeoVille specialises in harmonising datasets (e.g., merging DEMs), extracting topographic-related parameters, & producing accurate & up-to-date land cover & land use data.

GlobWetland Africa provided users With an open-source software toolbox for the end-to-end processing of spatial and temporal indicators on
wetland status and trends from local to national scales_ The ultimate goal was to support African stakeholders With the capacity to better fulfil their commitments and obligations towards the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands.
Location of Water resources and monitoring water frequency is essential for insurance of human and animal life. Since 2015 GeoVille provides for EEA water related products and services for entire Europe. This information is vital for managing water supplies, predicting droughts and floods, and ensuring the sustainability of ecosystems and human societies and specifically important for resilience of society and ecosystems.
