Smart sensors and arm based drainage monitoring system

Abstract

Smart and subversive drainage system is an imperative element of a municipal infrastructure. It is undoubtedly forms an integral part of our daily life. Nowadays, we can see that the people are facing many problems regarding drainage system. Now we are looking forward to implementation of the smart cities. Therefore, a system which handles underground water is essential to build. This task illustrates various functions used for maintenance and monitoring of underground drainage system all over the city. Various types of sensors like flow, level, and gas sensors are intervened by interfacing with ARM7 in order to make the system as smart. This project acts as a system which is developed to monitor the water level, water flow and gases. If drainage system gets blocked and water overflows this blockage will be instinctively recognized by the sensor. Specific sensors reached to the threshold level, the problem will be indicated and displays the message on the 16x2 LCD this information is sent through GSM to the nearby municipality service for the further corrective action. This smart drainage monitoring scheme will help to maintain the health of the people living the nearby aeras mainly during the wet season and ensure that people are safe. This monitoring also ensures that instinctive action is taken by the government personnel. The sensors do not give accurate values at times. There will be network problem in GSM when the sky is not clear.
