As climate change continues to disrupt global weather patterns, the frequency and severity of flood events have increased dramatically. Floods not only threaten lives and property, but also impact infrastructure, agriculture, and economic activity on a large scale.
To mitigate these risks, modern technologies are being leveraged to create responsive and scalable flood detection systems. At the core of these systems are ultrasonic sensors, which, when integrated with intelligent monitoring software, provide real-time, reliable water level data across diverse environments.
This whitepaper explores how ultrasonic sensors and IoT software work together to detect flooding in rivers, lakes, roadways, and coastal areas, and offers insight into system benefits, integration strategies, and implementation best practices.
