Abstract

This project presents an integrated system designed to enhance disaster management and relief efforts in flood-affected areas. Utilizing an Arduino microcontroller as the central processing unit, the system incorporates water level sensors and rain sensors to monitor flood levels and precipitation respectively. A keypad enables users to input their needs during flood events. In the event of a flood, GPS coordinates are obtained from satellites to precisely locate the affected area, which are then transmitted to flood rescue teams via a GSM module through SMS. The project's status is visually represented on an LCD display. The Arduino effectively coordinates the operation of all components, including monitoring environmental conditions, receiving user input, activating GPS for location data acquisition, and facilitating communication with rescue teams. By providing real-time information on flood conditions and user needs, the system enables swift and efficient response from rescue teams, thereby improving disaster management and relief efforts in flood-prone regions.KEY WORDS: Flood Rescue, GPS, Arduino, ESP8266.
