New Portal Enhances Public Preparedness for Natural Hazards

A new internet portal has been launched by the Federal Ministry of Digital Affairs to address natural hazards like floods and storm surges. This initiative aims to centralize current warnings, scientific analyses, and forecasts, providing vital information to the public.

Users can explore an interactive map featuring alerts on hydrological dangers, with plans to expand coverage to include other natural threats. The portal is designed to empower citizens by offering clear guidance and risk assessments, helping them make informed decisions during extreme weather events.

Developed in response to the 2021 flood disaster in Ahrtal, the platform reflects a commitment to enhancing disaster preparedness. As climate change intensifies the frequency of extreme weather, this portal serves as a crucial resource to protect communities by improving awareness and response to imminent natural risks.
