Beyond Backscatter: AlphaEarth Land-Cover Priors for Rapid SAR Flood Segmentation Across Foundation Backbones

Sanjay Thasma, Yu-Hsuan Ho, Ali Mostafavi

Rapid flood mapping is critical for emergency response, yet optical imagery is often unusable during major flooding and single-temporal SAR is ambiguous, since new inundation, perm…
