ON-DEMAND WEBINAR


Four Principles To Guide You When Developing A Flood Warning System

If the prospect of developing a new or expanded flood warning system feels overwhelming, don’t worry. You’re not alone. In this webinar, we lay out a basic framework for approaching these decisions. We break it down into four main principles you can follow. During this webinar, we discuss how to:
  1. Understand your vulnerabilities. (Who, what, when, and where is at risk for flooding).
  2. Determine the optimal system design (sensors, telemetry, and software to effectively reduce and mitigate risks).
  3. Identify communication pathways (for disseminating critical information about threats).
  4. Ensure long-term system resilience (so you can always be prepared).
Gain valuable insights from AEM experts and start your plan to keep your community safe today.
