Social media monitoring for weather impact.
FloodTags detects weather impacts by monitoring X, YouTube, BlueSky, Facebook, Instagram, and online news in real time. It delivers validated insights for operational management, disaster response, insurance, and climate trend analysis—adopted by leading agencies such as the UK Met Office.
We currently cover floods, landslides, mudflows, windstorms, snow, hail and wildfires.
FloodTags is a web platform that turns social media, news and websites into a structured, real-time picture of flood and severe-weather impact: Where it is happening, who and what is affected, down to neighbourhood level and across 13 languages.
A live workspace on events as they unfold, from automatic detection, geolocation and severity scoring to the individual posts behind each event, with queries, alerts, a live map and API access.
The same platform, set up for reporting. See the events detected in your region, and download a report on any of them: a quick snapshot, or a detailed report with maps, timelines and photos.
One-off work, on request, built around your question: tailored data analysis reports, multi-year event time-series for model validation and trend analysis, and manually validated data points.
Five front doors, one platform. Each links through to a page with the full picture.
