An automated water quality monitoring system.

Abstract

This project report discusses the design and development of an automated water quality monitoring system. It seeks to address the challenges posed in monitoring water quality while using the routine monitoring method. These challenges include; the tedious routine that is costly and has poor data collection and storage. Under this project an automated system is designed and developed. The system reads values of selected parameters along a water distribution line and sends them over GSM to a database where they are stored for further interpretation. The system is based on an 8-bit RISC AVR microcontroller, the atmega 328P-Pu. This project provides a less tedious, real time, deployable and manageable way of monitoring Water quality along distribution lines.
