Turning from pumps, Ascension probes street floods in Conway

So, I just read this article about how Ascension, a healthcare provider, is using technology to help monitor and prevent street flooding in Conway. It’s pretty cool stuff!

Basically, they’re using sensors and cameras installed throughout the city to gather data on water levels and predict where flooding is going to occur. Then, they send out alerts to emergency responders and even the public so everyone can stay safe and avoid those areas.

I think this is amazing because it shows how technology can be used for good, not just for entertainment or convenience. And as someone who lives in an area that’s prone to flooding, I can definitely appreciate the importance of this kind of intervention.

It’s also interesting to see a healthcare provider branching out into new fields like this. It just goes to show what’s possible when we think outside the box and collaborate across industries.

Overall, I think this kind of innovation could really make a difference in communities everywhere, especially as climate change continues to cause more extreme weather patterns. Kudos to Ascension for leading the charge!
