Development of Flood Monitoring System

Flood is one of the natural disasters that occurs every year in Malaysia. It destroys the
infrastructure and causes fatalities. Flood monitoring system can monitor the flood
level and warn people upon the danger of the flood. Existing flood monitoring
techniques include hydrological modelling, image classifications and wireless sensor
networks are the current measure control. Unlike the existing systems, this project
intends to develop a more robust and durable system which can withstand the wet
weather condition. It aims to monitor the water level and water velocity then alert the
communities in the future implementation whenever there is risk of flood occurrence.
In order to do this, the system needs to have the basic information such as water
conditions, water level and water velocity.
