IoT System for Monitoring and Controlling Cisterns

Dry regions of the planet have severe water management problems and use medium-sized reservoirs called cisterns to deal with the problem in remote regions. Cistern management in large areas must integrate monitoring with a logistic approach to optimize water distribution. In this project, we modeled an IoT system that advances toward this objective. We built a prototype and simulated managers’ data receipt. An overview of the geographical area and the status of the cisterns allows decision-making.
