Abstract
Development of flood early warning technology has grown rapidly. The technology has led to improvements in terms of communication and information technology. The use of the Internet of Things model (IOTs) has provided significant development to the development of early warning information systems. In this article is the development of a prototype model of flood monitoring information systems using Android has been designed by combining ultrasonic sensors as a water level detector, rain sensor, temperature sensor and moisture sensor. Arduino Uno Microcontroller Module used as sensor data processor, U-Blox Neo 6m GPS module as location detection and Ethernet module as sender of sensor data to station of flood early warning information system. The design of the prototype produces information on flood elevation, rain conditions, ambient temperature and soil moisture along with its location based on Google Maps interface on mobile android.
Highlights
Flood early warning information system serves as part of decision-making to determine disaster management policies of the government and as a material consideration of the community in knowing the location of the disaster and prepare for flood disaster
The study resulted in the sending of flood height data using SMS using Arduino Uno intermediate and GSM module which ended with alarm at flood information system station
Landslide warning system has been built based on arduino microcontroller and GSM module [10]
Summary
Flood early warning information system serves as part of decision-making to determine disaster management policies of the government and as a material consideration of the community in knowing the location of the disaster and prepare for flood disaster. To curb disaster risk, the government has encouraged private institutions and private sector to develop telemetry instruments in providing disaster early warning information[1]. The use of information systems based on mobile technology are a trend among current users such as the use of applications based on android operating systems is very high[2]. Based on the use of mobile technology android is very high it is possible that many users access the information through mobile applications.
