One early-warning network for Nigeria's climate risks
NEEWS unites dedicated early-warning systems for flood, drought, erosion, pollution and climate into a single national network — 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.
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.
Flood Early Warning System
Real-time river, rainfall and SAR inundation early warning across Nigeria.
Drought Early Warning System
Rainfall deficit, vegetation stress and food-security drought vigilance.
Erosion Early Warning System
Gully and riverbank erosion vigilance — the silent land-loss emergency.
Pollution Early Warning System
Air and water-quality early warning for people and ecosystems.
Climate Early Warning System
Multi-decade climate outlooks to screen investments and adaptation.
Transboundary Early Warning
Shared-basin coordination for rivers crossing Nigeria’s borders.
Aerosols & Air Quality Watch
Dust, smoke and aerosol transport — the invisible hazard.
Drainage Analysis System
Pluvial flood risk, channel capacity and stormwater intelligence.
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 seven 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.
One protocol · Seven systems
- Hosted by the Federal Ministry of Environment
- Searchable, verifiable and fully documented
- Built to link with regional & transboundary partners
Delivered with Nigeria's institutions
NEEWS is built and operated in partnership with the federal institutions that keep Nigeria informed, prepared and safe.
