ArcGIS-Ready Flood Intelligence for Florida Emergency Managers
Floodi delivers a live GeoJSON data feed that integrates directly into your existing ArcGIS and WebEOC workflows — no new software required.
Pilots available to qualifying county and municipal agencies. MOU only, no cost for the first 12 months.
Florida's average annual flood losses (NFIP claims + federal disaster declarations)
Early window before official sensor confirmation
Florida counties covered, no custom hardware required
NWS and USGS data refresh cycle
How integration works
Three steps, no procurement of new mapping software.
Connect
Point ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro, or WebEOC at Floodi's public GeoJSON endpoint. No API key required for read access.
Overlay
Add it as a live layer alongside your existing county, parcel, and infrastructure data — same coordinate system, no conversion step.
Act
See street-level community flood reports update in real time inside the GIS environment your team already works in every day.
Floodi is designed to complement, not replace, your existing tools
Drop Floodi into your existing GIS and EOC workflows without a rip-and-replace. All integration is API-driven and requires no custom hardware.
GeoJSON data feed compatible with ESRI ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Pro. Import live community flood reports as a dynamic layer in your existing maps.
Endpoint: https://floodi.app/api/floods.geojson — no authentication required for read access.
Floodi's API provides structured incident data that can be ingested into WebEOC as a supplemental situational awareness feed.
GeoJSON format maps directly to WebEOC board entry fields. Integration documentation available on request.
Public GeoJSON endpoint returns all active flood reports with coordinates, severity, timestamp, and road-impact flags.
https://floodi.app/api/floods.geojson — returns public-safe fields; filter by data tier (official / verified / community) with the ?tier= parameter.
What Floodi provides government
Floodi vs. traditional tools
Each tool below still matters — Floodi is the layer that fills the gap between them, not a replacement for any of them.
| Tool | Typical resolution / latency | Floodi |
|---|---|---|
| NWS alerts | County-wide polygons | Street-level reports |
| FEMA flood maps | Static hazard zones | Real-time community reports |
| Satellite-derived flood products | Hours of latency between passes and processing | Reports appear within minutes of submission |
| Social/community platforms | Unstructured, unverified | Verified with AI photo review, tiered by confidence |
County alerts cover regions. Floodi covers streets.
NWS flood warnings cover large geographic polygons — often an entire county. They answer "is there flooding in Miami-Dade?" not "which specific roads are impassable right now?" That street-level operational layer doesn't exist until Floodi.
- Sensor data takes 30–90 minutes to confirm conditions
- Satellite passes happen once every few hours
- 911 calls spike but don't map flood locations systematically
- Social media is unverified and geographically imprecise
Ground truth from the people already standing in it.
Community members submit street-level flood reports in under 30 seconds. Reports appear on the live map immediately and are viewable by your operations team in real time.
- Reports appear within seconds of submission
- AI verifies photos show actual flood conditions
- NWS-confirmed badge when report falls inside an active warning polygon
- Road-impact flags distinguish impassable vs. partially blocked

Floodi does not send WEA or EAS alerts. It is not an official emergency notification system.
Resilient Florida alignment
Florida's Resilient Florida Program (F.S. § 380.093) funds vulnerability assessments and resilience planning across the state's counties and municipalities. Floodi is not a state program, is not funded by Resilient Florida, and does not replace a formal vulnerability assessment. What it can do is complement that planning work: street-level, real-time reports give planning and emergency management staff faster, more granular visibility into where flooding is actually occurring today — the kind of ground-truth signal that helps validate and refine the models and maps a Resilient Florida assessment produces.
Founding Government Pilot Partner
Floodi is seeking one Florida county emergency management office as a founding government pilot partner. Pilot participants receive full platform access, ArcGIS integration support, onboarding and training, and direct input into the product roadmap.
Procurement path
- 1Initial briefing (week 1)30-minute call to walk your team through the platform, data sources, and security posture.
- 2Informal pilot (weeks 2–8)Free, no-contract access for your team to evaluate the platform during actual rain events.
- 3Formal evaluation (months 2–4)IT security review, data governance review, MOU or data-sharing agreement execution.
- 4Deployment (months 4–12+)Formal government contract, SLA agreement, and integration with your existing workflows.
Government FAQ
Floodi publishes a public, read-only GeoJSON endpoint that ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Pro can add directly as a live layer — no API key, no custom connector, and no software to install. Point your existing map at the feed and community flood reports, severity, timestamps, and road-impact flags update in real time inside the GIS environment your team already uses.
Floodi covers all 67 Florida counties. Community reporting, NWS alerts, and USGS gauge data are statewide from day one; FEMA flood zone overlays are also available statewide on the live map.
No. Floodi is not affiliated with FEMA, NOAA, NWS, USGS, or any government agency. Official data (NWS alerts, FEMA flood zones, USGS gauge readings) is displayed with attribution via each agency's public APIs, unmodified. Floodi does not send WEA or EAS alerts and is not an official emergency notification system.
The Founding Government Pilot includes full platform access for your operations team, ArcGIS GeoJSON layer integration support, onboarding and training, and direct input into the product roadmap — under an MOU only, with no cost for the first 12 months. See the pilot program section below for the full list.
Point ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Pro at Floodi's public GeoJSON endpoint and add it as a live layer. No API key is required for read access, and the feed covers community flood reports across all 67 Florida counties with severity, timestamp, and road-impact fields.
Floodi combines official NWS alerts, USGS gauge readings, and street-level community flood reports into one real-time layer for flood monitoring and emergency management — supplementing the county-wide picture from official sources with ground-truth reports from residents.
Floodi stores the report coordinates, severity, optional street/city/county label, optional photo, and an optional text comment. Reporter contact details and user IDs are never exposed in the public feed. Reporters can submit anonymously. Full data governance terms are documented at floodi.app/data-governance.
No. Floodi is a supplemental situational-awareness tool. It does not integrate with 911 dispatch, does not distribute official evacuation orders, and is not a replacement for WebEOC, NWS, or FloridaDisaster.org. Every Floodi page includes a safety notice to that effect.
For informal pilots with no contract (60-day scoped access), we have moved from first contact to live access in under two weeks with an MOU only. For formal procurement with IT security review and contract execution, typical timelines are 3–9 months. We'll work with your procurement and IT teams from day one.
Floodi is not currently FedRAMP-authorized. The underlying infrastructure — Supabase (PostgreSQL + Storage) and Cloudflare — operates on SOC 2 Type II certified platforms. For state and local government use cases that do not require FedRAMP, this posture is typically sufficient.
Yes. For government pilot engagements, Floodi will execute a data-sharing agreement or MOU that specifies data fields shared, retention periods, FOIA/public-records posture, and incident response commitments before any data exchange begins.
