Flood Detection and Water Monitoring System Using IOT

Abstract

Since we are now currently present in an era of Computing Technology, it is essential for everyone and everything to be connected to the internet. IOT is a technology that brings us more and more close to this goal. Our project comprises of smart water monitoring system which is a small prototype for flood detection and avoidance system. This paper explains the working and the workflow of all the components present inside our project. The sensors sense the environment and sends real-time data to the cloud (firebase cloud) and users can view and access this data via their mobile platform. The model gives a warning after the water level rises to a particular height. Since it is a small scaled prototype for flood detection and avoidance system, the working of this model is good. The data are uploaded and changed in the cloud in precision to the sensor and real-time changes in the mobile application is achieved. This model can be used to greatly reduce the casualties in a devastating event of flood. Introduction: We are witnessing various drastic advancements in the fields of science and technology over the past few decades. The current industrial age has revolutionized our lives and provides us with plenty of comforts and conveniences. However, this industrial progress has come at a hefty cost of global warming and other environmental disasters such as flood, earthquake, etc. Furthermore, the loss caused by such disasters to life and property is
