Disaster management and monitoring system for dams using iot applications

The adoption of cloud computing is increasingly favored by researchers and innovators globally, particularly in the advancement of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) infrastructures. This trend is particularly evident in the push for smart city development. However, there are always unpredictable forces and natural disasters that pose challenges to technological progress. This paper explores one such common disaster that affects both urban and rural areas - floods. The paper suggests that flood management and early warning systems can be enhanced through the use of cloud computing. With the continuous evolution of cloud computing, it is anticipated that integrating Green Cloud technology will further promote environmentally friendly practices in smart cities for a better quality of life.
