Project Overview

This innovative IoT-based water quality monitoring system revolutionizes aquaculture and agricultural water management by providing continuous, real-time monitoring of critical water parameters. The solution addresses the pressing need for sustainable water management in farming and aquaculture operations, where poor water quality can lead to significant losses in yield and increased mortality rates. The system combines advanced sensor technology with intelligent automation to maintain optimal water conditions while minimizing energy consumption and environmental impact. By providing both automated control and remote monitoring capabilities, farmers can ensure consistent water quality while reducing operational costs and manual labor requirements.
