Abstract

Floods are the most damaging natural disaster in this world. When it happened, it can destroy the community and killed many lives. The government would end up spending billions of dollars to recover the affected area. It is crucial to develop a flood control system as a mechanism to reduce the flood risk. Getting a quick feedback regarding the rise of the water level would help the surrounding area to take early pre-caution such as move away quickly to a safer and higher place. Thus, this project is about designing a system that can measure the speed of the rise of the water level at the potential flooded area. Waterfall model is used as the methodology in this project. The water sensor, Raspberry Pi and GSM module are the hardware used in the system. Raspberry Pi is used to collect the data from the water sensor and transmit the data to GSM Module to send the alert by using an SMS via a mobile phone. The analysis will be done to show how the Raspberry Pi will be integrated with the smartphone to give an alert. The system will be tested in order to ensure that all specifications needed have been met. A performance test will also be ran in order to see the efficiency of the system.
