Our Technology

Open government data, multi-factor analysis, and transparent methodology — built for trust.

Data Pipeline

Our prediction engine ingests data from authoritative UK government sources, analyses it against soil properties and drainage characteristics, and outputs risk-scored predictions with confidence intervals.

Alert Delivery

Primary

UK Environment Agency

Real-time water level readings from river gauge stations across England, available within 15-minute intervals under Open Government Licence v3.0.

Secondary

Open-Meteo Weather API

Weather data and soil moisture analysis at multiple depths (0-7cm surface, 7-28cm subsurface), providing ground saturation conditions that affect flood risk.

Prediction Model

Risk Classification

Water levels are classified against station-specific thresholds. Soil moisture data adjusts the predicted rise rate — saturated soil means more surface runoff and faster water level increases.

HIGH — Above flood threshold
MEDIUM — Approaching threshold
LOW — Normal levels

Confidence Scoring

Every prediction comes with a confidence score calculated from multiple factors including risk level, data completeness, and soil moisture availability. This helps decision-makers understand the reliability of each forecast.

Multi-factor confidence calculation

Higher scores with complete environmental data

Confidence range: 85–99%

Data Integrity

Open Government Data

All river monitoring data is sourced from the UK Environment Agency under Open Government Licence v3.0. Fully transparent and verifiable.

No Personal Data

Our prediction system processes environmental data only. No personal information is collected, stored, or shared during flood risk analysis.

UK GDPR Compliant

The platform is designed with privacy by default. Contact form data is processed in accordance with UK GDPR and never shared with third parties.

Security

Encrypted Access

Dashboard access is protected by encrypted session management with automatic expiry. All connections are secured via HTTPS.
