The main problem in India with respect to floods is inundation, drainage congestion due to urbanization and bank erosion. The problem depends on the river system, topography of the place and flow phenomenon. Flooding occurs when an extreme volume of water is carried by rivers, creeks and many other geographical features into areas where the water cannot be drained adequately.Floods cause extremely large numbers of fatalities in every country, but due to India's extremely high population density and often under-enforced development standards, a large amount of damages and many deaths which could be otherwise avoided. India witnesses flood due to excessive rain which then results in overflow of rivers, lakes and dams, which adds to cause large amounts of damage to people's lives and property. Hence this novel approach is used to monitor and alert floods using Arduino in affecting prone areas.
