Natural Disaster Prevention

Heavy rain monitoring and early flood warnings

WeatherPlus has developed a network of weather observation and rain measuring stations at high risk areas to monitor actual precipitation. By combining the collected data with rainfall forecast for the upcoming days, we are able to construct a hydrological model that provides exact description of the researched area, calculates and forecasts water flow with flood map of tje downstream area.

Warnings of flash flooding and landslides

Flash flooding and landslides are two forms of natural disasters closely related to precipitation. By incorporating flash flooding and landslides into our precipitation forecast, WeatherPlus provides a comprehensive solution to protect lives and assets of civilians against natural disaster.

  • At the areas with high risk of flash flooding and land slide, we install a sensor network includes: ground vibration sensor, string tension sensor, string tension sensor across the flow and infrared camera to monitor water flow.
  • At the affected areas such as mountains foot, lakesides and along the streams, we installed warning light and siren to instantly alert civilians when natural disasters take place.
  • When flash flooding and landslides occur, our sensor instantly emits a  highly accurate signal to the processing center, where the signal will be interpreted using WeatherPlus’ algorithm to send out emergency alerts to areas where the warning lights and siren have been installed.
