Climate change and intensive urbanisation have increased the risk of flooding, posing unprecedented challenges for municipalities. AI4FLOOD was born out of the urgent need to develop proactive responses, combining cutting-edge technology and citizen participation to improve prevention and response capacity in the face of these natural disasters. An innovation and cross-border collaboration project for the prevention, protection and preparation for flood-related emergencies.
AI4FLOOD is an innovative project that uses artificial intelligence to anticipate floods, providing communities with advanced tools for early detection and effective management of flood risk. This cross-border project combines efforts between Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Navarre and Gipuzkoa to create safer and more resilient communities, uniting entities and businesses from all three regions.
This project has been 65% co-financed by the European Union through the Interreg VI-A Spain-France-Andorra programme (POCTEFA 2021-2027) and will run for 4 years. The aim of the POCTEFA is to strengthen the economic and social integration of the Spain-France-Andorra border area.
