Monitoring weather disturbances, and their corresponding hazards, has now been made easier.
• Get updates on rain and weather outlooks for different Philippine cities
• View satellite images of typhoons in the Philippine Area of Responsibility
• See actual and forecasted typhoon positions
• Check water levels of streams all over the country
• View recorded rainfall amounts in the past 24 hours
• See areas with possible flooding and landslides due to heavy rain
• Share NOAHs information easily to your social media accounts
This is the official iOS app version of the Nationwide Operational Assessment of Hazards (Project NOAH) website (http://noah.dost.gov.ph). The companion app to ARKO (the mobile app for flood, storm surge, and landslide hazard maps), the NOAH iOS app features a user-friendly interface that allows you to view near real time weather information, which can help prevent and mitigate disasters.
This mobile app was improved by Pointwest in cooperation with Project NOAH. Content and data come from the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) and its participating agencies.
Project NOAH’s mission is to undertake disaster science research and development, advance the use of cutting edge technologies and recommend innovative information services in governments disaster prevention and mitigation efforts. Though the use of science and technology and in partnership with the academe and other stakeholders, the DOST through Program NOAH is taking a multi-disciplinary approach in developing systems, tools, and other technologies that could be operationalized by government to help prevent and mitigate disasters.
