This is the test operation for a water management platform that can be used to detect flood events more quickly. Based on the data collected with sensors, the city can identify local trends [on the water surface level] in the event of a catastrophe so that it can then react to them in a timely and appropriate manner. In this context, City Holding Heag is working together with the Darmstadt-based start-up e.Ray Europa. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fr.de\/rhein-main\/darmstadt\/darmstadt-hochwasser-schneller-erkennen-91519786.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more (in German)<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>On the same day, <strong>RTL Hessen<\/strong> also reported on our pilot project (in German):<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sWKsI8clv_0\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block;\" center=\"\" width:=\"\" 0px=\"\" overflow:=\"\" hidden=\"\" line-height:=\"\" 0=\"\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span>\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Darmstadt Mayor Jochen Partsch (member of the Greens party) spoke of further <strong>possible steps<\/strong> in which WAMO could be tested on the <strong>Modau<\/strong>, the <strong>Ruthsenbach<\/strong> and on two flood retention basins (<strong>Lake Erich-K\u00e4stner<\/strong> and <strong>Lake Brentano<\/strong> in Kranichstein).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Digital City Darmstadt &#8211; almost five years ago, our city was awarded this title in a competition held by the IT industry association Bitkom.
