The 1st eye tv-waron news (chief journalist chen rain) established a monitoring perception “one network”, which raised the rate of automatic monitoring of traffic from municipal hydrological stations to 100 per cent; the formation of data elements “clusters”, collections of critical waters, important points and multiple data sets; and the construction of a “one account” for risk management, with a projected flood in small watersheds rising to 24 hours
In recent days, the second reform innovation award for chongqing city has been published, and the project “restructuring the great hills water and drought disaster defense system”, led by the municipal water authority, has been awarded a copper award for the success of mega-cities in flood resilience, intelligent water construction, among others, as a landmark result of the city-wide digital reform of the water sector。

Chongqing dynasty director, upper river, consortment of the three gorges coves, consortment of the inland rivers, the threat of floods in the periods of the period of the summer is intertwined with the threat of drought and the challenge of water and drought disaster defence. The traditional defence model is based on a combination of decentralized warning channels, inefficient manual research and reliance on experience in decision-making. The municipal water authority combines a modern governance approach to mega-cities, with digital reform to break down the challenges of drought prevention and treatment, innovations to build situational awareness, evolution, early warning response, handling and recapitulation, and the creation of a system of intellectual defence that is “intellectual, early prevention, quickness, intellectual”。
The relevant head of the municipal water authority described the application as building a “think” base for global risk, integrating 16,000 sensor resources in 20 departments, such as meteorology, emergency response and public security, integrating beidou communications, physical networking, artificial intelligence technology, creating an integrated dynamic sensor network for the "spacewaterworker" that brings together 81 categories of cross-border cross-sectoral data, with full coverage of six risk areas such as hazard zones, flood vulnerability sites and so forth, and achieving a global risk viewable and timely control。
At the same time, using the integration of ai algorithms and digital twinning techniques, it simulates trends in the evolution and inundation of priority river floods, extending the forecast period for river floods to 72 hours and for small watersheds to 24 hours, promoting a shift in flood-prevention decisions from “experience studies” to “data support”。
In addition, the application introduces the ai voice “one by four” early warning model, which provides access to early warning call channels from city to district, township and village, reduces the warning time from two hours to 15 minutes before, and ensures that early warning messages reach those responsible at the grass-roots level and respond quickly。
Chongqing's application of “government water and drought disaster defense”. The 1st eye tv-walong reporter chen yoon
In 2025, thanks to the application, chongqing successfully fought 29 rounds of heavy rainfall, 119 super-police floods, cumulatively released 383 early warning products, distributed more than 150 movements of reservoirs, held back 1. 72 billion cubic metres of flooding and avoided the displacement of 52,000 people。
The results were commended by the ministry of water and water for their exemplary presentation at the digital china building summit, the national digital twin water construction sites conference, and the kawasu party joint political conference. The results were presented to the deputy prime minister of malaysia and the asean 10-country mission to provide replicable and replicable “chongqing experiences” for flood resilience defence in megacities across the country。
The above-mentioned director stated that the chongqing water authority will take advantage of this award to continuously upgrade its intelligent water applications, transform the results of the digital reform into a long-lasting disaster prevention and mitigation capacity, use digital technology to protect mountain cities and build solid water security for high-quality economic and social development throughout the city。
