Flood Report: Document and Share Local Flooding Issues

Flooding after rainfall is an increasing challenge in many communities, affecting streets, sidewalks, and even homes. The Flood Report mobile app empowers users to document and share flooding incidents, helping to build a community-driven database that supports awareness and efforts to address these issues. Whether you spot water pooling on a sidewalk, in a park, or in your own basement, Flood Report lets you capture and submit reports with ease.

Key Features:

Simple Photo Uploads: Easily capture photos of post-rain flooding directly within the app and submit them quickly.
Location-Based Reporting: Tag your reports with location data to build a clearer understanding of flooding patterns.
Filter and Download Data: Access and analyze flood data with filtering options to find reports relevant to your interests.
Community Impact: Your flood reports contribute to a growing repository of data that can be shared with local stakeholders, supporting ongoing efforts to address water management issues.
Support for Advocacy: Reports from the app may contribute to larger studies and discussions aimed at improving infrastructure and stormwater management policies.
Why It Matters:

Flooding can significantly disrupt daily life and poses unique challenges for underrepresented communities. Researchers at the Illinois Institute of Technology are dedicated to studying water infrastructure improvements, and data from the Flood Report app helps highlight affected areas. Each report you submit contributes valuable data to a larger initiative focused on addressing the impacts of climate change and enhancing community resilience.
