A4Campsite
A4Campsite is a flood-oriented Early Warning System specifically targeted at raising self-protection in campsites located in flood zones in Catalonia. It is currently implemented and being tested in 14 campsites in the delta of the Tordera River Basin, an area where floods represent a significant natural hazard.
A4Campsite shows real-time meteorological information, local data from river gauges and forecasts of rainfall and flash flood hazards that can affect campsites located in flood-prone areas. In case of warnings it shows specific self-protection actions to be done, allowing the campsite operators to better manage such events.
Pilot Site: Catalonia
Case study: A4Campsite (ANYWHERE for Campsite)
Status: Under operational demonstration since July 2018
Developer and implementor: HYDS (Hydrometeorological Innovative Solutions S.L.) and ACA (Agència Catalana de l’Aigua)
End-users: ACDLT (Associació de Càmpings del Delta de la Tordera)

“We have to guarantee people’s safety. When people come to our facilities on holidays, come to spend some days or just a nice weekend, we can’t fail them. An Early Warning System for floods provides campsites located in prone areas more security. Moreover, in case of heavy rain or storm surges we could protocolize what we should do every single moment.”
Josep Aubanell, owner of the campsites “Del Mar”, “La Conca” and “El Pla de Mar”
