Flood mapping is an essential component of planning flood mitigation. The availability of remote sensing data makes rapid flood mapping possible. This article develops an accurate method for rapid flood mapping using satellite imagery. Sentinel-2 imagery was tested by acquiring data before and after a flood event in a lowland area. Flooding extraction was performed using the newly developed Flood Inundation Extraction Index (FIEI) and compared to the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI), the most commonly used index. Based on the choice of threshold, the results are divided into flooded and non-flooded areas. Evaluation of the performance accuracy based on the total and kappa coef-ficients showed that the FIEI approach is more accurate than the MNDWI approach. © 2022, Zalozba ZRC. All rights reserved.
