Abstract: In a flood situation, forecast of necessary information and an effective evacuation plan are vital. Smart Flood Monitoring System-of-Systems(SoS) is a flood monitoring and rescue system. It collects information from weather forecast, flood onlookers and observers. This information is processed and then made available as alerts to the clients. The system also maintains continuous communication with the authorities for disaster management, social services, and emergency responders. Smart Flood Monitoring System-of-System synchronizes the support offered by emergency responders with the community needs. This paper presents the architecture specification and formal verification of the proposed Smart Flood Monitoring SoS. The formal model of this SoS is specified to ensure the correctness properties of safety and liveness.

Keywords: Flood monitoring; system-of-systems; behavioral modeling; formal verification; correctness; safety property.
