An Integrated Flood Warning and Response Model for Effective Flood Disaster Mitigation Management

Recent flood event in Malaysia especially at the East Coast region of Peninsular Malaysia shows the importance of providing a comprehensive and effective disaster mitigation management which encompasses the involvement of government agencies, private organization and NGOs. The early warning and resp...
