Abstract

Background and Objectives: The Tambaklorok fishing village area, located on the northern coast of Semarang City, Indonesia, is susceptible to sea level fluctuations, which often lead to tidal flooding and seawater encroaching into residential areas. Consequently, a seawater flood detector (rob) is needed for effective disaster mitigation for affected communities. This study aims to implement a disaster mitigation system by installing an IoT-based Seawater Flood (Rob) Early Warning System to reduce disaster risks and their impacts on the community.  

Methods: The IoT-based Early Warning System is designed to detect floods by monitoring sea level height parameters. 

Results:  IoT-based devices measure sea level using ultrasonic sensors, with the readings processed by a microprocessor. The data is then periodically analyzed and transmitted to an application in real-time. This technology allows for real-time information dissemination through web applications and alerts in the form of sirens. These warnings enable residents to evacuate and move to safer areas. The siren alerts are categorized into two levels: Alert 1 indicates that seawater is approaching the land boundary, while Alert 2 signals that water has begun to enter residential areas. Additionally, designated evacuation zones will guide affected communities to safer areas.

Conclusion: The installation of an IoT-based Early Warning System delivers real-time information to help mitigate the impact of rising sea levels (rob) in the Tambak Lorok fishing village community.

Keywords: Tambak lorok, detection, internet of things, mitigation, rob early warning system
