This study presents a developed ultrasonic water level detection (UWLD) system with an energy-efficient design and dual-target monitoring. The water level monitoring system with a non-contact sensor is one of the suitable methods since it is not directly exposed to water. In addition, a web-based monitoring system using a cloud computing platform is a well-known technique to provide real-time water level monitoring. However, the long-term stable operation of remotely communicating units is an issue for real-time water level monitoring. Therefore, this paper proposes a UWLD unit using a low-power consumption design for renewable energy harvesting (e.g., solar) by controlling the unit with dual microcontrollers (MCUs) to improve the energy efficiency of the system. In addition, dual targeting to the pavement and streamside is uniquely designed to monitor both the urban inundation and stream overflow. The real-time water level monitoring data obtained from the proposed UWLD system is analyzed with water level changing rate (WLCR) and water level index. The quantified WLCR and water level index with various sampling rates present a different sensitivity to heavy rain.

Floodgate monitoring is related to water level monitoring. Problems that occur Weir information about the water level, water runoff, level, status of floodgates and recap results that can be seen on the web in real-time are not yet available, so monitoring the floodgates is difficult, less effective and maximum. Weir officials must go back and forth from the weir to the guard post and then to the control to move the floodgates. The purpose of the design of a sluice monitoring system is based on the website. Assist officers in monitoring floodgates to make it more effective and maximal. Using Wemos D1 R1 Microcontroller, Ultrasonic Sensor HC-SR04 to read water level, DC Motor moves the floodgates. LCD displays runoff and level. Siren as a danger warning. The trial results show that the system that has been made runs well. The system is able to open the floodgates through control of the web and runs automatically. Water runoff and level can be displayed on the LCD. Weir information about water levels, water runoff, levels, sluice status, and recap results can be viewed on the web in real time.

Water Level Monitoring

Monitoring water levels of lakes, streams, rivers and other water basins is of essential importance and is a popular measurement for a number of different industries and organisations. Remote water level monitoring helps to provide an early warning feature by sending advance alerts when the water level is increased (reaches a certain threshold). The purpose of this report is to present an affordable solution for measuring water levels in water sources using IoT and LPWAN. The assembled system enables recording of water level fluctuations in real time and storing the collected data on a remote database through LoRaWAN for further processing and analysis.

Water Level Monitoring

The drinking water is one of the main problems affecting many countries now, in the same way we are not actually using the rain water properly. The misuse of water leads no many problems like uncontrolled water flow etc. Last year 2018 Kerala undergrown a deep flood because of huge rain due to that all the dams in Kerala opened simultaneously. It creates a huge flood in Kerala. Around 370 peoples died in Kerala due to this flood. The main reason is people are not aware of dam opening so the peoples near to the river all are washed off. Most of the dams are not having a digital sensing for water level. All the dams are having only scale measurement so failed to give information about damn opening. Water level monitoring system solves this problem It will give right information about water level in reservoir and it will avoid wastage water in tank.

With advancement in technology and ever-changing weather conditions, accurate and affordable water level measurement systems has become necessary for farmers. This therefore brings about the need for a system incorporating the use of IoT technology that will monitor water levels at a cost-effective price with accurate and dependable results. The prototype will monitor water levels on a regular basis and the data captured will be stored in a database to help farmers improve the way they manage their water resource. Farmers will be able to monitor the water levels from any location at any given time. This chapter focuses on a Smart Water Level Monitoring System for Farmers and provides a smart way to manage water resources on farms in the most cost-effective and convenient manner for farmers.

Water Level Monitoring

Riverine flood is a major disaster faced by most countries and has significant adverse effect on long term economic growth of affected regions and their environments. Several systems have previously employed different technologies to monitor riverine flood but are expensive with low accuracy and consumes high amount of energy. In this paper, we proposed an energy efficient and accurate flood monitoring system. The system leverages on Internet Protocol Version 6 over Low Power Wireless Personal Area Network (6loWPAN) technology to construct a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) comprising of two XM1000 motes and a rule-base water level monitoring application. The motes were configured using NesC programming for flood monitoring with Basestation and water level sensing applications. The water level sensing mote samples and transmits real-time water level information to the Basestation mote which interfaces with a rule-based water level monitoring application. The application compares current water level with a predetermined threat level and alerts relevant agencies when flood is imminent via an email. The results obtained from the emulation of the developed system showed that, it achieved an accuracy of 95.3% in water level monitoring with a Mean Squared Error of 5.1. The power consumed in transmitting a packet of 2 bytes payload plus other overhead was 0.4µJ and 0.0396mJ with and without 6loWPAN configuration respectively.
