About this app

FloodAlert offers you all current water levels and forecasts in one app. It warns you reliably about emergencies as soon as a water level reaches a critical state. This way you can act early to dangerous situations like floods and take preventive measures.
The gauge app supports you in setting thresholds for different water levels with official limit values for relevant water bodies in Europe and the USA.

Rain Alert & Water levels from over 30,000 measuring points
Our high number of measuring points provides you with a complete picture of the flood situation. It also directly influences the quality of the forecasts about future water levels. This enables us to warn you in good time about high water levels, overflowing rivers and critical flood levels. This way, you receive emergency warnings and protection against disasters through our emergency & water level alert app.

Notifications when water levels exceed your personal warning limit
You can easily set one or more threshold values for warnings per gauging station in our emergency alerts app. By setting the warning limit for river & flood levels, an alarm signal is sent to your device as soon as the level exceeds or falls below your individually defined threshold level. This allows you to act early to emergencies such as rain & flood disasters.

Alerting by tones, vibration, screen output and LED flashing light
You can configure your warning signals individually. Choose the alert signal that is most likely to alert you to flood disasters and upcoming emergencies. The alerts of the water gauge & emergency app will help you to prepare for disasters caused by rain or storms. For less critical early warnings that do not require your immediate attention, you can also disable the alarm sound.

Rain radar
Our app’s map has an integrated rain radar, so you can optimally assess the current weather situation. Colour-coded areas show you where there are storms and rain. The colour gradations range from "light thunderstorm" to "heavy thunderstorm" with the colours yellow, orange, red and violet.

Catalogue of measures and flood notebook
Especially with upcoming flood disasters & emergencies it is important to react quickly and correctly. Our action-catalogue is an officially recommended step-by-step guide that helps you to react at the first warning of a critical level. Our emergency alert & river level app is the perfect tool not only for warnings but also for concrete actions to take.
