FLOOD MONITORING AND ALERTING SYSTEM

Flood is one of the natural disasters which cannot be avoided totally. Every year, death rate due to flood increases because of absence of early warning. To solve this problem, this paper demonstrates the idea and implementation of a Flood Monitoring and Alerting system using Internet of Things (IOT) technology. This system comprises of three parts. The first part measures the height of the water using ultrasonic distance measuring sensor. The second part is sending the height information to web page using the Ethernet shield. The third part is making call to residences to alert them about flood through voice message. The call is made through the most popular mobile standard Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) and ARP33A3 is used to play the recorded voice message
