Abstract

The flood and heavy rain monitoring and alert system using Arduino is a crucial tool for enhancing disaster management in flood-prone areas. By utilizing low-cost Arduino microcontrollers and sensors, the system provides real-time data on water levels and rainfall intensity, enabling timely alerts to be sent to residents and authorities. Its simplicity and affordability make it an ideal solution for developing countries and rural communities where traditional monitoring systems may be lacking. The proposed work represents a significant step towards improving early warning systems for floods and heavy rains, ultimately saving lives and reducing property damage in residential areas during flood-affected times.

Keywords
