Nigeria Environmental Early Warning System
One early-warning network for Nigeria's climate risks
NEEWS unites dedicated early-warning systems for flood, drought, erosion, pollution and climate — so every community receives timely, actionable alerts before hazards strike.
Hazard history, exposure and vulnerability mapped across every hazard chain.
Satellite, river-gauge, rainfall and model-based detection with lead-time.
Authoritative, timely and actionable warnings to agencies and the public.
Preparedness guidance so warnings become action at community level.
The Platform
Early-warning systems across every hazard
Each system runs as a dedicated national platform. Select any one to open its live monitoring, forecasting and alerting tools.
Nigeria Flood Early Warning System
Real-time river, rainfall and SAR inundation early warning across Nigeria.
Drought
Rainfall deficit, vegetation stress and food-security drought vigilance.
Erosion
Gully and riverbank erosion vigilance — the silent land-loss emergency.
Pollution
Air and water-quality early warning for people and ecosystems.
Climate Change
Multi-decade climate outlooks to screen investments and adaptation.
Forestry Monitoring System
Sustainable forest management and monitoring.
Drainage Analysis System
Pluvial flood risk, channel capacity and stormwater intelligence.
Multi-Hazard Diagnostics
From observation to action, in four steps
Every NEEWS system follows a common national protocol — shared identifiers, open metadata, standardised quality control and linked thresholds — so warnings stay consistent and credible across all eight platforms.
Hydro-met monitoring, satellite passes and citizen reports feed a national data commons.
Forecast models translate raw signals into hazard scenarios and risk scores.
Operators use agreed thresholds and SOPs to issue authoritative warnings.
Post-event records and community feedback continuously sharpen the models.
How it works
Warnings you can trust
NEEWS is built and operated in partnership with the federal institutions that keep Nigeria informed, prepared and safe.
