Development of a rainfall rate monitoring system for Malaysia

Floods are one of the major disasters occurring all over the world, including Malaysia. It can lead to destruction of facilities, infrastructures as well as properties. Minimizing the risk of hazards and loss can be achieved by implementing several measures. Motivated from one of the biggest flood...

Motivated from one of the biggest flood disasters ever occurred in the country, this monitoring system is developed as a means to reduce the risk of loss and damages.
