Household Water Resource Monitoring and Leakage Detection

Abstract

Global environmental situation necessitates water management and conservation. Substantial water wastage can occur by leakage in the water supply system in household areas. Water usage monitoring is imperative in this era of declining water resources. This paper proposes a system to combat the above listed issues using enabling technologies like IoT and cloud services along with machine learning and sensor fusion techniques .In this paper we present a water leakage and monitoring system using cloud computing and IoT. Our proposed water leakage model is based on the idea that there is a relationship between flow values at various places and level of water in the tank. Cloud computing enables remote water usage monitoring and data processing capabilities. A novel method indicating the user to clean their overhead tank is also proposed in this paper.
