Solutions Brief | Zurich Climate Resilience Alliance
Technological improvements to flood early warning systems in Vietnam 

ISET-International (ISET) worked with communities and the provincial DRM agency to strengthen early warning systems in Huế City, Vietnam, with the installation of two automatic river water level gauges with radar sensors for improved accuracy, two inland smart flood warning towers that register flood depth and send data to the hydrometeorological monitoring system, and two high-power warning sirens with back-up power systems to use as a last resort for flood and storm warning communication. Together, these devices help to improve data availability, connectivity, and usefulness, and facilitate timely flood warning delivery to the hardest-to-reach communities.
