State-Compliant Outdoor Flood Warning Systems
Automated, grant-ready flood monitoring and public alert systems designed to support emergency management operations and community safety across flood-prone regions.
The Challenge: Texas Flood Risk and Public Safety
Communities across the United States face increasing flood risk due to extreme weather, aging infrastructure, and expanding development in flood-prone areas. River corridors, low-water crossings, parks, recreational zones, and rural roadways are especially vulnerable during rapid rainfall events.
Recent flood emergencies nationwide have highlighted a critical gap in public safety: the need for reliable, outdoor warning systems that reach people who may not receive mobile alerts due to coverage gaps, power outages, or delayed notifications.
State and federal resilience initiatives now encourage proactive investment in flood preparedness infrastructure, enabling municipalities and counties to strengthen early warning capabilities and emergency response readiness.

THE SOLUTION: AWARES' OUTDOOR FLOOD WARNING SYSTEM
AWARE’s Automated Flood Warning System integrates audible sirens and flashing beacon lights to alert the public the moment flood conditions become dangerous. When rising water levels trigger sensor thresholds, the system instantly activates these warnings—giving nearby residents crucial time to respond.
At the core is AWARE SHIELD, a centralized, web-based software platform that enables real-time data visualization, alarm activation, instant messaging, and hydrological forecasting. Easy to use and agency-ready, it supports automated alerts via sirens, lights, SMS, email, or direct integration into public and inter-agency flood warning websites.
Whether you’re protecting infrastructure or lives, AWARE ensures the right people are notified—loud, clear, and fast.
Rapid Deployment
Systems can be deployed in high-priority areas within weeks, supporting immediate preparedness goals and grant timelines.
Automated, Data-Triggered Alerts
Traditional systems fail to provide instant notification when immediate action is critical.
Coverage for Outdoor High-Risk Locations
Designed specifically for river corridors, low-water crossings, parks, and areas where mobile alerts may not reach populations.
Emergency Operations Integration
Integrates with existing emergency management dashboards and operations centers for unified situational awareness.
What Is an Outdoor Flood Warning System?
Early detection is critical when flood conditions develop. Timely warnings give communities the lead time they need to protect lives, infrastructure, and essential services.
AWARE Outdoor Warning Systems deliver a fully integrated, end-to-end monitoring and alerting solution—combining rugged field-deployed sensor nodes, resilient communications, and centralized software intelligence. Designed for continuous, real-time monitoring, AWARE systems track rainfall, water levels, and environmental conditions across streams, rivers, floodplains, and other vulnerable locations.
Each AWARE node features onboard processing and data logging to automatically collect, analyze, and transmit critical information as conditions change. When predefined thresholds are exceeded, the system enables rapid alerts and response actions—supporting emergency managers, public works, and decision-makers before flooding becomes dangerous.
AWARE SHIELD: Act Before Crisis Strikes
Our centralized software platform equips decision-makers with the tools to stay ahead of developing threats. It features intuitive map-based displays, real-time alert management, detailed live data, and integrated hydrological forecasting for enhanced situational awareness. Automated, customizable alerts—delivered via SMS, email, or other preferred channels—are triggered based on pre-defined sensor thresholds, enabling early warning before conditions become hazardous. This ensures key personnel have the critical lead time needed to make informed decisions and respond proactively.
