Disaster Detection System and Alert Notification using IoT

Disaster is a natural event that causes immense damage to human lives and properties yearly. If the Disaster is predicted and alerts are given to the citizens, it will help in saving many people and their property. A system is required around water bodies and the area around it to monitor it and predict the chance of flood. This will allow us to overcome the damage done by the Flood. This system as stated earlier will monitor these water bodies and send alerts to everybody's smartphones based on the danger. Major floods occur more than once every five years. The System consists of two Ultrasonic Sensors, a Float Switch Sensor, a Rain Sensor, and a Node MCU (ESP 8266) as the Microcontroller. These Sensors successfully detect the flood and categorize it into 3 different alerts namely Green, Orange, and Red. The System also sends notifications to Users through the IFTTT mobile Application using the data collected from ThingSpeak. For Earthquake and Fire Detection, Accelerometer and Flame Sensors are used. It also provides end-to-end solutions to the existing Disaster problems and it will help the people to rescue from this serious Natural Disaster.
