Southeast Texas Flood Coordination Study - Regional Flood Sensor System

Summary

Lamar University will improve the Southeast Texas Flood Control District (SETxFCD) low-cost sensor network by replacing 34 systems with more reliable commercial units equipped with rain gauges. This enhancement will expand the flood forecasting and alerting capacity of the National Weather Service and the Texas Department of Transportation.

Commencement of work on this project is contingent upon approval from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
