Abstract. In this work, we tested the possibility of determining the conditions for the occurrence of floods using available satellite data (Meteosat Second Generation products). For this, the data availability was checked, incl. availability for a specific time and territory (the Crimean peninsula and the adjacent waters of the Azov and Black Seas), which are ready-made products about precipitation and cloudiness, available on the EUMETSAT website. The process of obtaining and processing them with the help of specialized software packages for their study and possible subsequent compilation of an operational picture of the occurrence of floods has been worked out. The obtained results showed that these products can be used for flood detection, but a careful approach to their processing and mandatory comparison with data from other available information sources, including terrestrial ones, is required.
Key words: floods, climate, climate study, EUMETSAT, Meteosat satellites, remote sensing, satellite sensing.
