The Zurich Climate Resilience Alliance's ‘Solutions’ series shares practical and replicable local knowledge through our work across the world on how to build resilience to climate hazards. The last Solution from the Zurich Flood Resilience Alliance, before it became the Zurich Climate Resilience Alliance, explores how we have been working in collaboration with Imperial College London to test light detection and ranging (lidar) sensors in Nepal, Peru and Bolivia to improve flood #EarlyWarningSystems . So what makes lidar sensors so effective? - The measurement capability allows for continuous monitoring - They are easy to be installed and can be fitted to existing structures - They are low cost in comparison to high-tech monitors - The open-source nature of the sensors supports local maintenance - The software components can be scaled up conveniently and cost-effectively Find out more: https://lnkd.in/eizyW3kp You can also listen to the latest podcast which describes the use of lidar technology for river measurements in the Vilcanota watershed in Peru: https://lnkd.in/ezP2Ha9i

Smart rainforests will soon be a reality. 🤩 ClimateForce has partnered with us to make this a possibility in Australia’s Daintree Rainforest. We’re leveraging our revolutionary Smart Management Platform (SMP) to achieve this. SMP tracks and analyzes soil, water, air and the weather using geographic information systems (GIS), Lidar, drones and other optical sensors that support predictive analytics. Together, we’re doing our part to regenerate a razed section of rainforest and bring back biodiversity to the Daintree. ▶️ Watch the video to find out how: https://bit.ly/3WZsFaT #NTTDATAAPAC #Deforestation #BioDiversity #CaseStudy
