can use FloodVision™ to assess and communicate which policies are at risk of flooding
FloodVision™ is a new technology from Climate Central that provides precise elevation measurements and photorealistic visualizations of potential future flooding.
How FloodVision™ Works
• Custom-designed vehicle-top instrument package utilizes highly precise optical, LiDAR, and GPS sensors
• AI processing techniques produce high-resolution 3D reconstructions of the built environment
• Cloud computing and AI render photo-realistic flood waters
FloodVision™ can produce visually realistic images of potential flooding for buildings or scenes the FloodRover drives by, including for future sea levels, forecasted storm surges, or any combination, to any level of feet and inches. And each visualization is backed by leading peer-reviewed science.
FloodVision™ presents the opportunity to rapidly scale the collection of essential structural elevation data for understanding flood risk and the production of science-backed, compelling visualizations for the risk communication necessary for driving widespread awareness, concern, and action on climate change and coastal resiliency.
Science-backed visualizations for effective flood risk communication
High-quality first-floor elevation data for quantitative flood risk assessments
Rapid, scalable data collection anywhere the FloodRover vehicle can drive
