DTN APAC, delivers the Flood Risk System (FRS) to provide flood risk visibility. You can now easily visualise precipitation, and access rapid-update forecasting, across multiple sections of your site with the FRS geofenced alerting system. Gain a more precise determination with DTN APAC’s advanced geospatial technology creating hundreds of virtual ‘weather stations’ for each monitored section or culvert.
Rainfall is measured across each of your established catchments, with alerting calibrated to their individual thresholds. Alerts are raised when thresholds for any section are approaching or have been breached. This gives you targeted risk visibility to inform your assessment, operational response and emergency management.
The FRS can be integrated into your existing DTN APAC interface, or your own monitoring and control systems. Real-time monitoring of each catchment’s predefined thresholds is coupled with forecasting of rain, so you can provide your team with the most up-to-date information on whether conditions will ease, continue, or worsen.
The FRS gives you an overview of every catchment on your site on one, easy-to-interpret API. Don’t waste time analysing complex water level and meteorological data. This monitoring system delivers local evaluation and notifications in real time, in a simple format that supports your situational awareness. Optimise your preparedness and proactive assessment with a clear overview of on-site conditions, both current and forecast.
Enhance measurement systems and heighten risk visibility by sharing the FRS rainfall monitoring data with a third party to integrate hydrology and culvert alerts for your site.
Protect your team with audible and visual advanced warnings delivered through the summary interface, as well as by SMS, email and our WeatherGuard app for those in the field.
Maintain flood risk awareness and improve communications with trusted local information, flood monitoring and alerts, and team-wide access to FRS data.
The FRS is driven by Oracle – our satellite-derived, gridded nowcasting system: forecasting at a 1-2km resolution and updating every 10 minutes. Oracle has the upper hand in capturing hyper-local temperature, lightning, cloud cover, wind and amount of rainfall for your location, no matter how remote. DTN APAC uses local and on-site weather stations to benchmark the radar system, helping remove model bias, and improving overall accuracy.
As your business integrates the FRS, it is trained to increase precision. Based on your feedback, catchment thresholds can be altered. If your business observes that the system may be under-playing or over-playing flood event risk based on information on site, we adjust accordingly. Alterations can be made quickly and, over time, the system can be continually optimised to flood conditions on-site.
Severe thunderstorms impacted southwest WA and the Perth region on Sunday, December 14, 2025, triggering Dangerous Thunderstorm Alerts (DTA) by DTN for industries and businesses in the region. DTN operates Dangerous Thunderstorm Alerts (DTA) which alert businesses and industries to thunderstorms based on intensity and movement. These alerts provide advanced notice of thunderstorms moving into […]
Port and maritime operations across Australia’s East Coast could be disrupted by increased tropical cyclone activity in the Coral Sea and southwest Pacific Ocean over the next two weeks. Meteorologists reference a large selection of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models to forecast weather. A number of these NWP models are forecasting the development of tropical […]
Hot, dry and windy weather causing elevated fire danger and severe heatwave conditions are sweeping across southeastern Australia over the next three days, driving high energy demand and disruption to operations. Clear skies associated a large and slow-moving high pressure system have allowed hot air to build up over parts of northern, western and central […]
The Australian and New Zealand Council for fire and emergency services (AFAC) identified western and southern WA, Victoria and inland NSW as key regions that are at risk of heightened bushfire risk this summer. Parts of Australia have experienced severe soil moisture and rainfall deficiencies over the past months and years, while high fuel loads […]
