Smart Dam Monitoring System

This paper presents an IoT-based dam monitoring and automation system designed to improve the efficiency, safety, and reliability of dam operations. The system employs an ultrasonic sensor to continuously measure the water level and a NodeMCU microcontroller to process the data. This information is transmitted in real-time to the Blynk app, which provides a user-friendly interface for monitoring and control. The system also includes a servo motor for automatic and manual gate control, enabling the prevention of dam overflows or maintaining adequate water storage levels. With features like automation, remote monitoring, and real-time alerts, this project aims to reduce human intervention, improve safety, and enhance operational efficiency in dam management.
