How Data Science is Transforming Mumbai’s Flood Management Strategies
Again, Mumbai experiences floods throughout the year due to its monsoon climate. Every year, the city encounters the problem of handling heavy downpours, which results in water logging, destruction of facilities and structures, and, more so, interruption of people’s activities. This means that while flood protection has been reactive up to a certain point, data science is turning the tide and trying to prevent rather than merely mitigate damage. In this article, Drew, I have taken a closer look at how the data science technique has integrated into Mumbai's flood management and how the city is molding its monsoon challenges better with this help.
