This study focuses only on the water level detection and early warning system (via website and/or SMS) that alerts concern agencies and individuals for a potential flood event. Furthermore, inquiry system is also included in this study to become more interactive wherein individuals in the community could inquire the actual water level and status of the desired area or location affected by flood thru SMS keyword. The study aims in helping citizens to be prepared and knowledgeable whenever there is a flood. Ultrasonic sensing techniques have become mature and are widely used in the various fields of engineering and basic science. One of advantage of ultrasonic sensing is its outstanding capability to probe inside objective non-destructively because ultrasound can propagate through any kinds of media including solids, liquids and gases. The novelty of this work falls under the utilization of the Arduino, ultrasonic sensors, GSM module, web-monitoring and SMS early warning system in helping stakeholders to mitigate casualties related to flood. The paper envisions helping flood-prone areas which are common in the Philippines particularly in the local communities of the province. Indeed, it is relevant and important as per needs for safety and welfare of the community.

In the market, there are many options for motorcycle security such as disc locks with alarms, steering wheel lock, heavy duty steel chains etc. Motorbike locks are considered the commonly used security accessory. The project utilized two motion sensors in order to detect if someone tampers the vehicle. The device would send SMS notifications to the owner. In addition, the alarm would be triggered to alert the owner and the people around the vicinity. When the motor was stolen, the owner has the capability to cut-off the engine using SMS and the remote key. The device would also determine the location of the vehicle using GPS module and GSM as a means of communicating. Through the use of Arduino MEGA, GPS, GSM, Accelerometer and Ultrasonic Sensors it can provide a security mechanism that will notify the owner when the motor was stolen, it provides a combination switch that cannot be easily bypassed by thieves and an alarm feature and tracker that allows the owner to locate its motorcycle.
