One natural disaster that commonly brings about tremendous economic loss as well as lots of casualties is flooding. For purposes of mitigation, an IoT-based flood monitoring and warning system has been devised. The system relies on the utilization of an Arduino UNO, an LCD display, a buzzer, and a water level sensor. The system aims at monitoring water levels on a constant basis and provides real-time alert to an online server, and also provide flood warnings via SMS to approved phones. When a certain level is sensed by the water level sensor, an SMS warning is notified to approved mobile devices. Real-time visual indication of water levels on the LCD display is also present in the system and activates a buzzer for local immediate notifications. The water level is also transmitted to a cloud server where it can store remotely and accessed to enable further analysis and decision-making. Instant communication is facilitated by IoT technology that allows disaster management personnel and emergency services in order to be able to respond quickly and take protective measures prior to the flood reaches its critical points. timely warning and information which help in minimizing loss and damage and local and remote user alerts, the system provides an economical and efficient solution for flood sensing. Through the use of Arduino, IoT, a buzzer, and an LCD display, the project greatly improves flood response and readiness functionality.
