Iot Based Flood Monitoring and Alerting System with Weather Forecasting

Abstract

This paper represents the development strategies of Internet of Things based flood monitoring and alerting system with weather forecasting through open weather API. This project is based on the open source electronic platform i.e. Arduino. The Arduino Uno R3 is to be set up multiple different devices such as ultrasonic sensor for the water level detection by capturing the time between transmitting and receiving sound waves, temperature and humidity sensor DHT11/AM2302 for analyzing the moisture content and water flow sensor for evaluating the speed of water flow. Further, these values received by different sensors are to be transferred to the Android Application which is developed with the technologies such as Java, XML, Android studio. The final system will be deployed in the flood prone areas for early detection and prevention of flood.
