Demand Context

Building a solid safety barrier for flood control and disaster relief through real-time river monitoring.

In recent years, the combined effects of global climate change and human activities have intensified, leading to frequent flooding in small and medium-sized rivers. This poses a serious threat to the lives and property of the people. Therefore, implementing real-time online monitoring of small and medium-sized rivers to understand rainfall and water level data and take timely measures can help reduce the occurrence of flooding disasters and better safeguard the lives and property of the people.

Key Challenges

Scattered Hydrological Data

Water level, rainfall and flow data from different river sections are isolated, hindering holistic flood risk assessment.

Delayed Warnings

Without real-time thresholds, abnormal water level rises or rainfall intensities are detected too late for effective flood prevention.

Information Silos

Lack of data sharing between meteorological, hydrological and land departments leads to disjointed disaster response.

Weak Decision Support

Historical data is not fully utilized to forecast flood probabilities or optimize reservoir and sluice operations.

Solution Overview

IoT‑enabled river monitoring integrating water level, rainfall, flow and video for flood early warning.

Flow meters, water level gauges, rain gauges, and cameras at key river points. These devices connect to WideIOT hydrological gateways (RTUs) and transmit data in real time via 5G/4G networks to the water management department's platform. This enables remote monitoring, automated alerts, and intelligent management, continuously tracking rainfall and water level changes in small and medium-sized rivers. It provides reliable data support for formulating flood prevention and disaster relief measures. Data reports and graphs assess the probability and severity of potential flood disasters, enabling macro-level regulation of water resource allocation within the watershed to prevent flood disasters.

Programme Benefits

Comprehensive river oversight through real‑time data and intelligent flood analysis.

Real‑time Monitoring

Collect hydrological data such as water level, rainfall, and flow velocity in real time 24/7. Query the water level, flow rate, storage capacity, historical maximum water level statistics and various data of rivers at any time.

Map Display

Intuitively display the location distribution, water level information, equipment status, battery status and other information of each river monitoring station on the map to quickly grasp the changes in rainfall and water regime of each river basin.

Overlimit Alarm

When the rainfall and water regime exceed the warning threshold, automatically send alarms to the management department via WeChat, SMS, email, etc. After the management department discusses and makes decisions, promptly activate flood control warnings and emergency rescue and disaster relief work.

Information Sharing

Realize data connection and information sharing with platforms of meteorological, hydrological, land and resources and other management departments, integrating multi-party information on a unified platform.

Station Management

Query the rainfall and water regime data, monitoring station status and person-in-charge information of each small and medium-sized river basin at the county, township and village levels, and centralize them on the platform to form an overall perspective.

Decision Analysis

Managers, combined with the disaster situation information in the region, timely activate corresponding emergency rescue and disaster relief plans, and continuously track changes in rainfall and water regime to adjust the plans, improving response capabilities and handling levels.
