Palabras claves: Inundaciones, AMGR, Sensores Remotos, Índices de Agua ABSTRACT Urban growth shown in recent decades in the Gran Resistencia Metropolitan Area led to the occupation of spaces not suitable for population settlement given their environmen- tal conditions, and because of that, the alteration of rainwater receiving spaces, being committed to new developments, have altered their dynamics and in consequence there have been a number of floods. The aim of this paper is to identify the spatial distribution of precipitation in the period between December 13, 2018 and January 17, 2019. The Mo-dified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) was applied. The results show that 67.6% of the administrative space of the AMGR has been flooded, and because of that, the houses were occupied by water generating material losses, proving the need for infrastructure works aimed at mitigating the effects of floods.
