FAST: The flood early warning system that bridges the gap between forecasting and action.
An effective flood early warning system is one that tells you exactly what is going to happen in a specific riverbed, when, and with what consequences.
Today’s meteorological models are better than they were three decades ago. The leap is so significant that the precision once achieved four days out is now reached at seven. However, this progress has physical limits situated around 14 days, the horizon beyond which atmospheric forecasting irreversibly loses reliability.
AI for predicting floods: from reaction to anticipation
How much is an hour’s warning worth? In a flood, it can be the difference between evacuating in time or not.
The use of AI to predict floods allows for anticipating risk scenarios with enough lead time to make preventive decisions before the event is underway.
Early Warnings for All, the race to protect the world before 2027
The Early Warning for All (EW4ALL) initiative, promoted by the UN, aims to ensure that the entire world population is protected by multi-hazard early warning systems by 2027.
How to deal with flash floods using AI
Dealing with flash floods requires more than infrastructure: it requires data, anticipation, and quick decisions. In just a few hours, a dry riverbed can turn into a torrent that floods streets and sweeps away everything in its path. Recent experience confirms this:...
Climate change and rainfall on the Cantabrian coast: how FAST’s AI enables us to anticipate the growing risk of flooding
Climate change is transforming precipitation patterns in the north of the Peninsula, creating new uncertainties about water management and disaster prevention. According to the report Advanced Diagnosis of Climate Change in Bizkaia, prepared by the Provincial Council...
Astronomical and Meteorological Tides: Flood Prevention with FAST
Both types of tides affect sea levels but in different ways. Understanding both is crucial for disaster management and prevention.
