Will you have ‘dry feet’?
User-friendly information on river levels & flood risk is being put into the hands of everyone thanks to a project funded by Innovate UK.  A company that specialises in unlocking the power of data has developed an alert system that gives a real-time picture of river levels and the potential for flooding at more than 2,400 locations across England & Wales.  Anyone can view the map online for an overall picture of national river levels or search for levels and river flow at individual measuring stations.  Twitter users can also follow individual gauges and receive two alerts a day.
