MUMBAI, India, Aug. 12 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641092699 A) filed by Geethanjali College Of Engineering And Technology, Hyderabad on July 30, 2026, for Integrated Flood Monitoring And Automated Emergency Water Release System.

Inventors include Dr. G. Neeraja Rani; Mohammed Ayaan; Sai Bhairava Kalakunta; Kondapalli Gayatri Sri Harshitha; and J. Ushasri.

The application for the patent was published on August 07, 2026, under issue no. 32/2026.

Abstract: Floods cause devastating fatalities and property losses that real-time monitoring and early warning systems can significantly mitigate. The Integrated Flood Monitoring and Automated Emergency Water Release System deploys distributed tipping bucket rain gauges, ultrasonic water level sensors, flow velocity meters, and soil moisture sensors across river catchments. A dual-model forecasting system combining HEC-HMS hydrological routing and LSTM data-driven prediction generates ensemble probabilistic flood stage forecasts with 6-24 hour lead times. PLC-controlled automated spillway gates execute pre-emptive controlled releases to create flood attenuation storage before peak inflow. A tiered community early warning system delivers Watch, Warning, and Emergency alerts through SMS, sirens, and digital signage. A real-time monitoring dashboard provides disaster managers with comprehensive situational awareness for evidence-based emergency response decision- making.
