Case Study: Environmental Agency achieves real-time flood alerting with Shoothill's Flood Alerts

Environmental Agency launches Flood Alerts with Shoothill, reaching 50 million hits

The Environmental Agency required innovative tools to manage and communicate flood risk data across the UK. Shoothill proposed a solution to utilize the agency's live data, leading to the development of their Flood Alerts product.

Shoothill created a system that visualized live flood data on an interactive map, provided alerts via a Facebook app, and later a standalone website. The solution went viral during major floods, receiving 50 million hits and significant media recognition. It was ultimately hosted on the Environmental Agency's own website for over two years, demonstrating its value and high quality.
