WATER RESOURCES MONITOR SYSTEM IN AGRICULTURE

Resumo

The consumption of water for the irrigation activity in agriculture is one of the most responsible for water consumption in Brazil. Thus, in view of a sustainable society, it is necessary to develop methods to control water consumption for this activity. The objective of this project is to create a prototype of a computerized system where, through the relevant data collection to the main current planting techniques, and by their storage and analysis, it is possible to manage and make water consumption methods more efficient in the irrigation process. As a result, a complete system for collecting and analyzing data on moisture and air temperature and soil moisture is obtained, starting from the use of IoT (Internet of Things) components for data collection, display and graphical analysis of the same through dynamic screens with real-time information reception. It is concluded that, for the expansion and project scaling, the use of recent Web technologies is recommended, such as the creation of an API (Application Programming Interface) for managing received and sent data.
