Industrial IoT Sensors for Water Levels and Flood Warning Systems

Water is a precious resource that you and your family need every day. Today’s sensor technologies make it easier than ever to quickly, and effectively, deploy monitoring systems for measuring and managing critical resources like water. These days it seems we’re often getting either too much water (causing dangerously high water levels, floods, storm surge, and rising tides) or too little water, which causes natural environmental disasters like drought. Can Industrial IoT sensors and water monitoring systems help you, your teams, and your organization to save water, lives, your money, and your time? You can probably guess the answer, but we won’t give it away just yet. In this write-up you’ll learn about how government agencies and Smart Cities have installed flood warning systems. These water level monitoring systems use Industrial IoT sensor devices that increase safety for communities. Let’s talk about how IoT sensor monitoring technologies work, challenges, and lessons learned from deploying Industrial IoT units in the field.
