5. Proposed solution
● Create a unified Web and Mobile
APP.
● Share water flow data with all
District Collectors, NGOs and
Citizens.
● Empower administration,
assistance providers and citizens
to prevent life loss.

6. PAGOVA
PLATFORM
Features
Collate Geo-sensing stations
and Chinese Water Flow data
Measure physical water levels
via IoT stations along the river islands
Interpret via AI based
data algorithms
Generate insights on the water level and raise
possible flood warning well ahead of time
Predictive and Advanced
Visual and textual warnings
by location via APP

How PAGOVA Works?

8. Machine
Learning &
AI Data
Interpretation
•Algorithms remove the noise and validate data
•Tag, annotate and classify the data sets
•Self learning models for new data
•Algorithms to understand classified data
•Combine data from multiple
sources for accurate insights
•Continuously tag/ label the
data to provide accurate alerts
