EdgeFlooding

A distributed flood monitoring system that uses edge/cloud computing for real-time detection of flash floods, extending a centralized cloud-based approach.

Product Information

Description
EdgeFlooding is a distributed environmental monitoring system designed for real-time flash flood detection by leveraging edge and cloud computing architectures. It processes data from monitoring sites through localized edge nodes that handle initial image analysis, reducing latency and bandwidth usage compared to purely cloud-based approaches. The system employs a modular microservices architecture, allowing flexible deployment configurations where image analysis services run on edge devices while social media monitoring and data aggregation occur in the cloud. This hybrid approach enables rapid response to flood events by analyzing visual data near its source, making it suitable for municipalities, emergency services, and environmental agencies needing timely flood warnings. The platform supports experimental configurations to evaluate performance across different computing infrastructures, demonstrating the feasibility of distributed edge-cloud systems for future environmental monitoring applications.
