Abstract

Flood ranks as one of the most damaging forms of natural disaster in the world. Death rate due to flood increases because of absence of early warning. The purpose of a flood warning service is to detect and forecast threatening flood events so that the public can be alerted in advance and can undertake appropriate responses to minimize the loss. Deploying various sensors at the river side, reservoirs and in various incoming sources of water which helps in the real-time measurement and monitoring of the hydrological conditions of rivers is proposed in this work. The data from sensors are analysed and alert message is sent through SMS and also displayed in website.
