Cloud IoT Based Greenhouse Monitoring System

This project explains the design and implementation of an electronic system based on GSM (Global System for Mobile communication), cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT) for sensing the climatic parameters in the greenhouse. Based on the characteristics of accurate perception, efficient transmission and intelligent synthesis of Internet of Things and cloud computing, the system can obtain real-time environmental information for crop growth and then be transmitted. The system can monitor a variety of environmental parameters in greenhouse effectively and meet the actual agricultural production requirements. Devices such as temperature sensor, light sensor, relative humidity sensor and soil moisture sensor are integrated to demonstrate the proposed system. This research focuses on developing a system that can automatically measure and monitor changes of temperature, light, Humidity and moisture level in the greenhouse. The quantity and quality of production in greenhouses can be increased. The procedure used in our system provides the owner with the details online irrespective of their presence onsite. The main system collects environmental parameters inside greenhouse tunnel every 30 seconds. The parameters that are collected by a network of sensors are being logged and stored online using cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT) together called as CloudIoT.
