Levee Health Monitoring and Surveillance (Real-time)

by Dipak for FiberCorps

When Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, the levees failed to protect the city. There's now an initiative to improve the monitoring systems for them. A student could create a system that analyzes stored input from sensors that are already in place for anomalies. This system would then alert the proper authorities through a variety of different means. For guidance on how to design such a system, seek out information on best practices for safety monitoring systems.
