The goal of this paper is to discuss the application of fog computing concept realized with embedded systems for environment monitoring in case of emergency situations such as flood, earthquakes, landslides, etc. We also present a practical realization of a hardware-software platform for such a system by applying the described ideas to a smart levee monitoring station. The realization of our concept is based on a multi-variant embedded platform for an autonomous data acquisition and processing station. The system is being tested in an experimental setup in a life-size artificial levee.
