【 Live Camera Footage】Real-Time Monitoring of Rivers Across Japan

Disasters and social issues

Is the river in your city okay?

In recent years, large typhoons and localized downpours have occurred almost annually, causing rivers to overflow in various places and striking fear into many who witness the muddy torrents on the news.
Those living near rivers, in particular, might be spending anxious hours glued to weather reports, wondering, “What’s the current state of the river near my house?”
Therefore, this time, we will introduce live cameras by prefecture that allow you to check the real-time conditions of rivers across the country, which can be relied upon during typhoons and heavy rains.
Japan has a climate prone to typhoons and heavy rain, so rising river waters are never someone else’s problem. Weather conditions can change rapidly, and detecting signs of rising water levels early is crucial for minimizing damage.
Live cameras installed on rivers deliver real-time situations, allowing local governments and residents to quickly grasp the situation and utilize the information for making decisions on appropriate responses.
For example, many live cameras are installed on major rivers flowing through densely populated urban areas, including Tokyo. These cameras are available on the websites of river offices and local governments, easily accessible to anyone with an internet connection.
By checking the state of the river near your home or workplace in advance, you can be better prepared for evacuation in times of emergency. Let’s enhance our awareness of disaster prevention on a daily basis and ensure safety.
