Modern Flood Monitoring Built for Today's Cities
Legacy flood systems were designed decades ago. Levelynx brings modern technology, automated alerts, and simple pricing to community flood protection.
Levelynx vs Traditional ALERT-Style Systems
Traditional flood monitoring systems served their purpose, but technology has evolved. See how Levelynx compares.
Hardware Ownership
Cities purchase expensive equipment ($5,000-$15,000+ per site)
Maintenance
City staff responsible for repairs, calibration, and replacements
Installation
Requires specialized contractors, weeks of planning
Data Access
Often requires proprietary software and technical expertise
Alerting
Dashboard monitoring, manual notification required
Scalability
Each new site requires full equipment purchase
Hardware Ownership
Flexible options with hardware available for purchase
Maintenance
Maintenance-free operation, equipment replaced if needed
Installation
Simple installation in under an hour per site
Data Access
Cloud dashboard accessible from any device, anywhere
Alerting
Automated phone calls, texts, emails, and siren activation
Scalability
Add locations anytime as your needs grow
60GHz Radar Accuracy vs Manual Gauges
Traditional flood monitoring relies on pressure sensors, ultrasonic sensors, or manual staff gauges. Each has limitations that affect accuracy during the conditions that matter most: actual floods.
60GHz radar measures water levels from above, without any contact with the water. This non-contact approach eliminates the problems that plague traditional sensors.
60GHz Radar
- Millimeter-level precision in all conditions
- Unaffected by debris, sediment, or foam
- Works through rain, fog, and extreme temperatures
- No sensor contact with water
- No drift or calibration required
- Long-term reliability without maintenance
Traditional Sensors
- Requires physical contact with water
- Sediment buildup affects accuracy
- Debris can damage or block sensors
- Regular calibration needed
- Pressure sensors drift over time
- Ultrasonic affected by foam and waves
Automated Alerts vs Dashboard-Only Monitoring
A dashboard that shows water levels is useful. A system that automatically calls residents when water is rising is essential.
Dashboard-Only Systems
- Requires someone watching the dashboard 24/7
- Staff must manually interpret data and decide when to alert
- Manual phone trees and notification processes
- Delays between detection and resident notification
- Nights and weekends create coverage gaps
Levelynx Automated Alerts
- Automated 24/7 monitoring with no staff required
- Pre-configured thresholds trigger alerts automatically
- Phone calls, texts, and emails sent simultaneously
- Seconds between detection and notification
- Same response at 3 AM as 3 PM
Traditional vs Levelynx Costs
Traditional flood monitoring requires piecing together equipment from multiple vendors. Levelynx offers a complete, integrated solution with predictable costs.
Traditional Approach (Per Site)
