Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators and connectivity which enables these things to connect and exchange data. The number of IoT devices has increased 31% year-over-year to 8.4 billion in 2017 and it is estimated that there will be 30 billion devices by 2020. Water pollution is a major environmental problem in India. The largest source of water pollution in India is untreated sewage. Other sources of pollution include agricultural runoff and unregulated small scale industry that results in polluting, most of the rivers, lakes and surface water in India. In this paper, An IoT Based Smart Water Quality Monitoring System using Cloud and Deep Learningis proposedto monitor the quality of the water in water-bodies. In conventional systems, the monitoring process involves the manual collection of sample water from various regions, followed by laboratory testing and analysis. This process is ineffective, as this process is arduous and time-consuming and it does not provide real-time results. The quality of water should be monitored continuously, to ensure the safe supply of water from any water bodies and water resources. Hence, the design and development of a low-cost system for real-time monitoring of water quality using the Internet of Things (IoT) is essential. Monitoring water quality in water bodies using Internet of Things (IoT) helps in combating environmental issues and improving the health and living standards of all living things. The proposed system monitors the quality of water relentlessly with the help of IoT devices, such as, NodeMCU. The in-built Wi-Fi module is attached in NodeMCU which enables internet connectivity transfers the measured data from sensors to the Cloud. The prototype is designed in such a way that it can monitor the number of pollutants in the water. Multiple sensors are used to measure various parameters to assess the quality of water from water bodies. The results are stored in the Cloud, deep learning techniques are used to predict whether the water suitable or not.
