Patent attributes
Described herein are methods and systems for real-time swiftwater risk category distributed mapping. A mobile computing device generates a request for swiftwater risk information, the request including a location. A server computing device receives the request for swiftwater risk information from the mobile computing device. The server computing device models hydrologic conditions for a plurality of segments of one or more bodies of water at or near the location. The server computing device classifies each segment of the bodies of water according to a level of potential risk of hazards associated with the hydrologic conditions. The server computing device generates a visual representation of the bodies of water that includes a classification indicator for one or more of the plurality of segments for display on the mobile computing device, and transmits the visual representation to the mobile computing device.
