Empowering Nations to Build Flood Resilience with Data-Driven Insights

The Flood Exposure and Mitigation Index (FEMI™) is a cutting-edge tool designed to assess flood risk and track the effectiveness of mitigation efforts worldwide. By quantifying exposure and response, FEMI™ empowers governments, policymakers, and researchers to make informed decisions that safeguard lives and economies.

With decades of experience in financial modeling and optimization, FEMI™ was founded to address the growing need for reliable, data-driven tools to assess flood risk. We’ve witnessed firsthand the impact of floods on communities and economies and are committed to using our expertise to drive better decisions for a more resilient future.

FEMI™ goes beyond national flood risk assessments. With district, state, and regional scoring, policymakers can prioritize flood mitigation efforts where they are needed most within a country, ensuring resources are allocated effectively.

Benefit 1:

Multi-Level Flood Risk Assessment

Tailored Insights at National, Regional, and Local Levels
FEMI™ provides flood risk assessments across multiple scales—national, regional, and local. This multi-layered approach ensures that decision-makers can identify the most vulnerable areas within a country and focus mitigation efforts where they are needed most. Whether planning at the macro or micro level, FEMI™ empowers authorities to allocate resources strategically and effectively, ensuring more targeted flood resilience strategies.

Benefit 2:

Continental and Global Comparisons

Benchmark Your Region Against Continental and Global Scores
FEMI™ offers more than just local and national insights—it allows users to benchmark their region’s flood risk and mitigation efforts against continental and global scores. This provides critical context for understanding where a country or region stands in relation to others. By comparing scores across borders and continents, decision-makers can identify best practices, set priorities, and take action to enhance resilience based on global standards.

Benefit 3:

Actionable Insights for Long-Term Impact

Simplifying Complex Data to Empower Resilience
Flood data can often be complex and inconsistent, but FEMI™ simplifies this by organizing it into sensible ranges that offer clear, actionable scores. By focusing on trends and key indicators, FEMI™ provides insights that guide decision-makers in prioritizing mitigation efforts. The long-term impact assessment helps ensure that communities and economies can recover and thrive after flooding events. While the data is refined into practical metrics, FEMI™ offers a reliable framework for driving meaningful, data-informed resilience planning.

Behind FEMI

FEMI™ leverages AI technologies to analyze and synthesize historical data, with 2020 as the base year. By leveraging extensive datasets, FEMI™ provides flood risk assessments and mitigation strategies that acknowledge data imperfections. Each analysis aims to maximize impact per investment (MII) by identifying the most effective mitigation efforts within budget constraints. FEMI™ helps decision-makers optimize resources, building resilience with actionable insights tailored to each region’s specific challenges and vulnerabilities.
