This record was retired 29/03/2022 with approval from S.Oliver as it has been superseded by eCat 146257 DEA Water Observations Water Observations from Space (WOfS) provides surface water observations derived from satellite imagery for all of Australia from 1986 to the present. The WOfS product allows users to get a better understanding of where water is normally present in a landscape, where water is seldom observed, and where inundation has occurred occasionally. WOfS displays the detected surface water from cloud-free Landsat observations for the whole of Australia.
