What is the IoT Based Flood Monitoring?

The IoT Flood Monitoring system warns people before a flood reaches them. An ultrasonic sensor mounted over a river or drain measures the water level, and a rain sensor detects heavy rain.

The ESP8266 sends data to a cloud dashboard, and alerts with siren and SMS are triggered when water crosses danger levels. It is built with ESP8266 and Arduino C/C++.

Best for: BE / B.Tech (ECE, EEE, E&TC, CSE, IT), diploma and polytechnic students. Good as a mini project for your semester submission.

How the IoT Based Flood Monitoring Works

1

Sense

Sensors read real-world values like temperature, gas, motion or distance.

2

Process

The microcontroller checks the values against set limits.

3

Act

It turns on a buzzer, relay, motor or LED when needed.

4

Notify

Live data and alerts are sent to a phone app or web dashboard.
