Optimized Crop Cultivation Based on Weather Monitoring System

Abstract

This project furnishes an automated vision of a climate and plant monitoring system. Based on it, the device stores data which are collected at a predetermined sampling interval for monitoring and analysis of various environmental parameters such as humidity, temperature, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction, air quality, rainfall amount and location coordinates. The device’s central processing unit consists of an Arduino UNO that is used in collecting data and information about various sensors and probes. This type of system can be deployed in controlled environments such as farms and aquaculture. The idea behind this is primarily to monitor and forecast the weather at a micro-ecological level, and monitor premeditated situations to issue warnings in adverse circumstances. Hardware-wise, it consists of a programmable circuit board and for software an integrated development environment that functions on available operating systems is used. Arduino’s microcontroller is used to develop a weather monitoring system based on temperature and humidity variables obtained from a DHT11 sensor. When testing, the monitoring system should be able to convey whether the weather is harsh, normal, or rainy, etc. based on accurate temperature and relative humidity within a 20-meter range. This project primarily incorporates the field-based control systems of two studies and the data collection strategy to produce a database system based on the attributes used to generate the data presented. The main elements here have been selected based on the sensors that are commonly used to build the system to design an effective weather monitoring project. The recommended sensors are used here to measure and collect temperature and humidity data. Weather monitoring proposes a system that monitors the weather in real-time through a mobile application. This very underrated platform to connect all these different types of sensors and broadcast their data over the internet is provided by Arduino UNO. The main intention of the work is to record the weather, which can be easily monitored remotely via the Internet of Things with the help of Arduino UNO. This lays out users with an easier, more reliable, and quicker way to assess the weather and other environmental parameters.
