REPORT POST-RAIN FLOODING
We simplify how to report post-rain flooding, anywhere and in any amount. If you see post-rain water on streets, sidewalks, parkways, grassy areas… even in your own basement, you can upload photos to the Flood Report mobile app. Users can filter and download the data, and we also include an option to submit reports to local governments and municipalities.
We use the data to identify where flooding is occurring and make recommendations to policy makers regarding solutions to post-rain flooding.
ABOUT OUR EFFORTS
We are a group of researchers at the Illinois Institute of Technology trying to improve water infrastructure to alleviate flooding and prepare for climate change and extreme weather. We recognize that flooding disproportionately affects overlooked constituencies due to a historical lack of investment in water infrastructure. Thus, new policies and innovative stormwater management approaches are needed.
