Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges (CSPC), through its AI Research Center for Community Development (AIRCoDe), officially launched Project APAW (AI-Powered Weather and Flood Monitoring System) in the Municipality of Balatan. The initiative introduces a solar-powered, localized monitoring solution designed to strengthen disaster preparedness, improve early warning capabilities, and enhance community resilience to climate-related hazards. Funded by Fundación de Religiosos para la Salud (FRS) from January to December 2025, Project APAW integrates multi-parameter environmental sensors that monitor wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, rainfall, and water level. These sensors are connected through a long-range LoRa mesh communication network, enabling the continuous transmission of real-time weather and flood data. To establish comprehensive monitoring coverage, five stations were strategically deployed across Balatan: the MDRRMO Office, Luluasan, Laganac, Mang-it, and Binudegahan. The collected atmospheric and hydrological data provide local authorities with timely information to support early warning, disaster risk reduction, and emergency response operations. In line with its commitment to data transparency and public accessibility, Project APAW also features an online monitoring portal at https://portal.apaw.cspc.edu.ph, where stakeholders and residents can access real-time weather and flood information. The successful development and deployment of Project APAW were made possible through the dedication and collaboration of the CSPC project team: Project Manager: Dr. Challiz D. Omorog Project Leader: Joseph Jessie S. Oñate APAW Developers: Engr. Keith Marlon R. Tabal, Engr. Rizza T. Loquias, Philip Alger M. Serrano, Kaela Marie N. Fortuno, Engr. Roner P. Abanil, Hazel V. Reyes, and Jeffrey A. Canonce Project Administrative Staff: Vianne Faye S. Gastilo Through the collective expertise of the team, CSPC and AIRCoDe have translated research and technological innovation into a practical solution that empowers local government with actionable environmental intelligence. Project APAW underscores CSPC’s continuing commitment to harnessing artificial intelligence, data analytics, and emerging technologies for community development. More than a monitoring system, it represents a collaborative effort to protect lives and livelihoods while building a safer, more informed, and climate-resilient Municipality of Balatan.
