Exploring Crowdsourced Data Validation Methods for Flood Mitigation: A Comprehensive Review

Floods are One of the most devastating natural disasters and hence require immediate mitigating mechanism. This work begins by exploring the use of crowdsourced data for flood mitigation, focusing on technology-related components such as real-time processing, verification strategies and platforms. Contributions of various techniques, such as social-media, mobile-apps and Internet-of-Things devices in decreasing response-times and increasing data accuracy are also discussed. The emphasis of the project is done on Complex Data Validation, Predictive Modeling BigData Analyics for Improving Early Warning Systems. The new area for the future remains in developing data validation processing and immediate user interaction to improve efficiency while not affecting matters of privacy or security.
