Abstract:
Sensor based modeling pertinent to automate dam safety and end control system. Many
dams’ uses for irrigation, hydroelectric power, and other purposes for human beings these
are needed to be efficient and effective for the best of their service and utilization. These
dams are monitored by traditional ways of monitoring and monitoring task performed by a
group of people based on visiting dam data, and site inspection. This is labor intensive and
not available to the stakeholders easily.
In this thesis, we aim to develop model for dam safety monitoring using wireless sensor
network and it overcomes these challenges and other defects. The model is developed using
wireless sensor networks and sensor nods to access the real time status data about the
reservoir dam. We have implemented water level physical sensor including ultrasonic
sensor in small water tank, simulation design using Proteus professional design tools and
programmable code in C using Arduino IDE. And also web application monitoring system
for monitoring centrally and generating reports in order to access the status of reservoir
dam easily. Finally, we present both physical sensor implementation experimental result
and simulation results. The experiment presented inspiring results.
