The flood information & alert service in the Free State of Saxony is headed by the Saxon Flood Centre based in the Saxon State Agency for Environment and Geology. The Saxon Flood Centre is responsible for flood information and early warning for all main rivers in Saxony. It provides relevant flood information directly to each authority with flood defence responsibilities as well as to any third parties (private persons) with particular risk of flooding.

The following information products are automatically delivered to the recipients when defined alarm stages (flood level thresholds) are reached:

  • Flood levels,
  • Flood warnings / all-clear messages and
  • Flood flash messages via SMS.
