The move comes after Chennai faced one of the worst floods in over a century in late 2015
 
Technology giant IBM has teamed up with the Tamil Nadu government to establish a cloud-based intelligent operations command centre to help government agencies prepare for and respond to extreme weather events.
 
Based on IBM’s cloud and analytics technologies and services, the centre will be located in Chennai. It has been funded through an IBM grant of $2 million.
It is designed to help mitigate the devastating negative impact of natural disasters, including annual monsoon-related flooding, IBM said in a statement.
 
The cloud-based centre will enable Tamil Nadu to pool time-sensitive data from various sources, including weather forecasts, current conditions, and historical data from The Weather Company — an IBM unit — it added.
