EXTREME EVENTS

Standards

• We need standard mechanisms for data access, standard data formats, and standard metadata

• This facilitates data sharing• CUAHSI can take the lead on this

Collaboration

• We need to work together– Data sharing– Emergency response and communication– Think of the CAPCOG dot map that Maidment

showed

Education

• Turn Around Don’t Drown• How do we get the message across to not

drive around barricades• Education the kids, who can influence the

adults

Warning

• NWS sends weather warnings out – a push system

• With CUAHSI HIS WaterOneFlow, clients make requests for data – a pull system

• What framework will we use as we collaborate across organizations (push or pull?)

Communication

• Radio• TV• Smart phone apps– Alerts– Rerouting

• Car GPS– Alerts – Rerouting

Temporary Gage Deployment

• Augment sensor network with temporary gages during extreme events to better monitor them

Volunteer Reporting

• Volunteers can help us monitor watersheds during extreme events by– Reporting locations of impaired roads such as

those that are overtopped with water– Taking photographs showing high water marks

• Compare to CoCoRaHS volunteers measuring rainfall
