About Project

This project primarily aims to develop a prototype flood risk assessment platform by acquiring high-resolution aerial photographs and detailed topographic data to accurately model the terrain and generate flood inundation maps for specific regions. This approach enables a comprehensive understanding of flood extents and their impacts on the area. Additionally, historical satellite data has been incorporated to analyze past flood events and validate trends. To ensure effective data collection, our team conducted reconnaissance surveys to assess the existing conditions of selected sites for drone data acquisition. The collected data is accessible through a web-based GIS platform, which offers capabilities for data visualization, comparative analysis, and querying, facilitating informed decision-making and planning.

Community Engagement

We conducted an extensive drone survey and analyzed satellite data to map flood-prone areas. The high-resolution drone data enabled us to create detailed maps and models crucial for assessing flood risks. During the survey phase, we engaged with local communities to gather insights about the terrain and local conditions, ensuring that our data collection was grounded in real-world observations. The data we generated is accessible through a web-based GIS platform, offering capabilities for data visualization, comparison, and querying, thereby facilitating informed decision-making and planning.
