Water Quality Monitoring System Based on the Internet of Things

People's lives always necessitate prioritizing having the best possible and accessible water quality. Since pollution sources continuously expand, water quality monitoring systems have become essential. However, such monitoring systems remain too expensive. Fortunately, with the recent growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology and the ongoing development of smart monitoring systems, a low-cost smart water quality monitoring system can be implemented. This paper presents a novel methodology for water quality monitoring systems, allowing smart acquisition of water data, real-time monitoring, and the maintenance of the optimal water quality required for the intended audience. This work provides the necessary monitoring options in a reliable and cost-efficient manner. The system design consisting of hardware and software architectures is presented and investigated.
