Public disaster and road-access planning data for Thailand
Support public disaster coordination with flood evidence, Bangkok monitoring locations, reference boundaries and mapped road context.
How can agencies share a common public evidence picture during planning?
Combine source-labelled flood observations, reference administrative boundaries and mapped access context into a public planning brief. Police, military support teams and local authorities still confirm conditions and act through their official command procedures.
Review workflow
- Define the planning area and responsible administrative units using reference boundaries, retaining the agency's official jurisdiction records.
- Collect source-dependent flood observations and record freshness, missing coverage and the observation time for each item.
- Use Bangkok station metadata to identify monitoring locations and mapped roads to frame access questions; request readings and confirmations from the responsible authority.
- Share a dated brief showing verified agency reports separately from public observations and route unresolved access questions to local teams.
What to produce
A public coordination brief with source-labelled observations, administrative references and a list of access questions requiring official confirmation.
| Dataset | Coverage and cadence | Sources and licences | Limitations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Current flood evidence Experimental | Source-dependent observations in Thailand; BMA feeds cover Bangkok Source-dependent; checked about hourly Marked stale after 6 hours; unavailable after 7 days | Bangkok DDS legacy road-flood telemetry Bangkok DDS KlongMap canal water levels | Experimental, source-dependent observations (reports, road state, rainfall, water level). Coverage and cadence vary by source; an empty viewport does not mean no flooding. |
| Water monitoring stations Experimental | Bangkok monitoring locations Station catalog checked about hourly Historical or versioned data; no real-time freshness claim | Bangkok DDS legacy road-flood telemetry Bangkok DDS KlongMap canal water levels | Experimental catalog of monitoring-station locations and metadata (rainfall, flow, canal level, road flood). It does not contain current readings. |
| Administrative boundaries Stable | Thailand Versioned reference release Historical or versioned data; no real-time freshness claim | Boundaries are the COD-AB reference set for Thailand. They are a cartographic aid, not a legal or cadastral boundary. | |
| Thailand basemap Stable | Thailand Versioned releases; no fixed public cadence Historical or versioned data; no real-time freshness claim | Basemap geometry, not analysis data. It is drawn from vector tiles and is not a completeness claim about any feature on the ground. |
Questions this data cannot answer
No classified, tactical, real-time force-location or authoritative operational-command data is provided. The catalog cannot certify road safety, evacuation routes or current water readings; official agency instructions take precedence.
Try a bounded data request
Read-only, no key required, limited to 100 features in the stated viewport. An empty response can indicate missing coverage. Read the response timestamps, sources and status before use.

Prepare a pilot with your team
For an agency pilot, define public jurisdiction records, the planning area and the official confirmation contact. Agree an update procedure, missing-source flags and approval responsibilities before operational use.
