IoT-Based Pipe Burst Detection in Water Distribution Systems

Abstract

Agriculture is the heart of our vibrant culture which is the backbone of our country’s economy. India’s population is 1.2 billion now which means that the nonrenewable resources must be used judiciously. Today, most of the places in India suffer from drought due to lack of abundant rainfall. Manual supervision is always needed for traditional farming. Hence, it is the duty of every engineer of the country to contribute to its technological development. This thought was the foundation for our project and the objective of this paper is to automate the irrigation system. The proposed methodology includes a node microcontroller unit (Node MCU) to monitor the water flow and controlling the water supply and communication is done using IOT. The idea of the Internet of Things (IoT) has been integrated with automation to design the proposed “PIPE BURST DETECTION IN WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS”.
