African Geospace participated in a partnership with the George Washington University Department of Geography, the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) of the World Bank, and the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre to map households located in floodplains across several African countries.
The initiative enabled governments and humanitarian actors to anticipate flood impacts and implement proactive measures before peak river flows occur.
Building on this work in Togo, our team developed an innovative mobile-based digital platform to collect real-time climate and hydrological data upstream of the Nangbéto hydropower dam. The data feeds into FUNES—an award-winning machine learning solution showcased at the Global Government Summit—strengthening the link between Early Warning Systems (EWS) and early action initiatives led by the Togo Red Cross.
Improved flood risk anticipation and preparedness
Real-time upstream data integration into national early warning systems
Technology-driven decision-making that protects lives and property
This project demonstrates African Geospace’s capacity to lead high-level, mission-critical IT and geospatial initiatives with life-saving impact.
