主权项 1. A flood warning system comprising: at least one processor coupled to non-transient storage such that the at least one processor can cause information to be stored within the non-transient storage and retrieved from the non-transient storage, the non-transient storage having stored therein personal screening information associated with each of multiple registered personal mobile devices; a flood alarm system implemented in a cloud environment, that will, based upon GPS information received from an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), communicatively determine whether any of the registered multiple personal mobile devices are within a specified range of a flood impacted area and, based upon ultrasound-derived flood depth information received from the UAV, determine if any specific ones of the multiple personal mobile devices are within the specified range of the flood impacted area, and will communicate flood-related data messages, screened based upon non-transiently stored personal screening information, retrieved from the non-transient storage and associated with each of the registered personal mobile devices, to the specific personal mobile devices, so as to cause only relevant personalized flood alerts to be displayed, using a processor of each of the specific personal mobile devices, on the specific personal mobile devices; and wherein the relevant personalized flood alerts comprise a heat map for at least a portion of the flood impacted area, the heat map indicating specific local depth hazards located under the flood waters within the portion, the heat map overlying on top of a street-level geographical map of the portion so that users of the specific personal mobile devices can maneuver through a part of the portion via directions specifying an appropriate path that is provided as part of the relevant personalized flood alerts and avoids specific relevant local depth hazards.
