Abstract: ABSTRACT SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REAL-TIME URBAN FLOOD MONITORING AND PREDICTION The present invention relates to a system and method for real-time urban flood monitoring and prediction. The system employs distributed sensors for acquiring rainfall, water level, water flow, drainage and environmental parameters, integrated with weather, geographical, terrain and historical flood data. A machine-learning module processes the data to predict flood probability, severity, affected areas and expected occurrence time. A risk assessment module generates location-specific flood-risk levels and an alert module provides early warnings through a centralized monitoring platform. The system enables continuous monitoring, predictive flood assessment and timely response for effective urban flood management.
