Inland water is an important part of the Earth’s water cycle. Mapping inland water is vital for understanding surface hydrology and climate change. Spaceborne global navigation satellite systems reflectometry (GNSS-R) has been proven to be an effective technique to detect inland water bodies. This paper proposes a new method to map inland water bodies using the delay-Doppler map (DDM) measurements provided by the GNSS-R platform Cyclone GNSS (CYGNSS). In this new method, we develop a refined power ratio to identify the coherence in DDM caused by the inland water. Processed with an image segmentation method, the refined power ratio is then applied to discriminate the permanent inland water bodies from the land. Using CYGNSS data over the Amazon Basin and the Congo Basin in 2020, we successfully generated water masks with a spatial resolution of 0.01°. Compared with the reference optical water masks, the overall detection accuracy in the Amazon Basin is 94.48% and the water detection accuracy is 92.23%, and the corresponding accuracies in the Congo Basin are 96.12% and 93.16%, respectively. Compared with the previous DDM power-spread detector (DPSD) method, the new method’s false alarms and misses in the Amazon Basin are reduced by 17.1% and 9.1%, respectively, while the false alarms and misses in the Congo Basin are reduced by 10.2% and 22%, respectively. Moreover, our method is proven to be useful for detecting short-term flood inundation.
