Based on the E-noe 6 project, this paper developed with the purpose to reduce damages and losses caused by flood in urban centers, through the cheap flood warning system to authorities and population. The system monitors the water level of a runway or river and according to the risk with the level, triggers emergency alerts to the authorities through telephone calls and SMS messages. For the population, there are light beacons that define the situation of the river. The data is collected in cloud storage through the Ubidots server, turning possible to visualize them in real time.
