Flood is natural disaster that will cause a significant damage to the environment and both living and non-living things. Kota Samarahan repeatedly experienced flooding due to few reasons such as low-lying area, gradual urbanisation, and no masterplan to construct the drainage system. These issues become a big problem when the flash flood is happened and will interrupt society’s activities. Therefore, the real-time flash flood monitoring and warning system is proposed in this project. The concept of this proposed system is to share the water level reading from the hardware. The hardware, Flash Flood Observer is under other FYP project to collect the data to the same sharing database server. The proposed system able to share the real-time water level and show the flood prone area based on the sea level using the GIS map. When the water level reaches a critical level, it will broadcast the warning to the end�user. This project is developed based on Rapid Application Development (RAD). The methodology used as the methodology offers a rapid prototype and iterative delivery as software development
