Oxford Flood Network Web Interface

This Flask application provides an interface to show all of the Oxford Flood Network sensors that are active, and their current status.

Installation

First clone this repository to your computer somewhere, such as ~/oxfloodnetweb/

cd ~/oxfloodnetweb
mkvirtualenv oxfloodnet
workon oxfloodnet
pip install -r requirements.txt

Running the application

While working on oxfloodnet, run the following from your terminal:

python server.py

Now you can view the web interface by visiting http://localhost:5000.

Todo:

• Finish the reverse Geo lookup from Postcode stuff
• Get a scalable/sustainable database source
• Add information about each sensor to the display when tapping an icon
