Abstract

Using IoT and Android applications, this paper proposes a more effective water monitoring and control system for water utilities to reduce existing water wastage. Traditional water tanks are unable to monitor or control the level of water in the tank, resulting in significant wastage. Water level is measured using an ultrasonic sensor. Other parameters such as pH, TDS, and turbidity should be calculated. The Microcontrollers can process the estimated values from the sensors and upload them to the internet via the Wi-Fi module (ESP 8266). Other technologies, on the other hand, had certain limitations in one form or another.
