Monitoring Flood Threats: The Second Principle of Flood Early Warning Systems
Whether you’re establishing a new flood monitoring network, or you’re looking to expand or adjust an existing network, you’ll want to watch this webinar – the third installment in our “Principles of Flood Early Warning Systems” webinar series. In this installment, we outline the considerations for selecting and prioritizing specific monitoring sites and for choosing among the various sensor options. We also explain what goes into selecting the right telemetry to ensure your network meets the needs of a flood early warning system. You’ll walk away with a better understanding of:
- An overall framework for thinking about the design of your flood early warning system.
- The criteria that will help you choose the best sites for monitoring flood risk.
- How to choose the sensors that are best aligned to your needs.
- Considerations that go into selecting fit-for-purpose telemetry.
- Which software capabilities are crucial to ensure effectiveness and reliability.
