Project Overview
Project Title
Design and Development of a Smart Flood Alert and Community Response System for selected coastal communities in Region 4, Guyana
Goal
To protect coastal communities in Region 4 from flood-related harm by deploying a Smart Flood Alert and Community Response System that delivers real-time monitoring, rapid automated warnings, and improved emergency preparedness over a 12-month period.
Project Objectives
- Design, develop, and deploy a real-time flood monitoring system including at least 10 water-level sensors and a centralised digital dashboard accessible to the Civil Defence Commission — by Month 7.
- Implement an automated SMS alert system capable of reaching at least 500 registered residents within 2 minutes of flood-threshold detection — by Month 8.
- Train at least 50 community members and conduct at least 3 simulation exercises to improve disaster readiness — by Month 10.
- Improve community emergency response efficiency by reducing average response time by at least 30% compared to existing informal systems — by Month 12.
Key Stakeholders
- Civil Defence Commission (CDC)
- Georgetown Mayor and City Council
- Regional Democratic Council — Region 4
- Neighbourhood Democratic Councils (NDCs)
- E-Networks — SMS partner via TextBlast
- Hydrometeorological Service of Guyana
- Community leaders and emergency response volunteers
