Abstract
One of the biggest natural disasters India had ever faced was floods in Western Maharashtra in August 2005 and August 2019. The primary objective of this research is to provide an innovative and sustainable solution required to monitor flood situations and perform rescue operations in the worst affected Sangli, Kolhapur and Satara districts. This attempt aims at providing IoT-based flood detection and AI-based rescue operation through the system. This research makes use of Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence technologies to provide a reliable and implementable solution for the above problem. This innovative approach uses Arduino Uno microcontroller for flood detection based on rise of water level, humidity, atmospheric pressure and temperature measured through BMP180 sensor. Raspberry Pi has been used for carrying out drone-based rescue operations by detecting the number of people stuck in flooded regions using YOLO object detection algorithm and notifying concerned authorities about them through web portal and mobile application. Keywords— Artificial Intelligence, Drones, Flood Monitoring System, Flood Rescue System, Internet of Things
