Groundwater Rising

Flood Warning Systems - The Next Generation


Listen Later

Greg Gomez (Software Developer, 3 Sided Cube) and Dr Jonathan Mackay (Hydrogeologist, British Geological Survey) talk to host Katie about the new Project Groundwater Flood Warning system they have built.

This new app shows exciting potential for what could be achieved nationally. Community hubs, action plans, alert states, detailed maps and forecasting all feature. Katie gets Greg and Jon to explain how the system works, what they did to develop and improve it and how systems like these could be a massive source of help and reassurance to individuals and communities in the future.

Basing this new system around groundwater flooding has provided plenty of challenges and opportunities that Greg and Jon explore over the course of this episode
