Cloud Enabled Water Contamination Detection System

Water is a very important resource for all the living things on earth. Plants, animals and human beings essentially require water for their survival. It is very important to control biological, physical and chemical contamination of the water which can be overseen by monitoring the water quality. The information collected regarding the contamination levels of the water body indicates the water quality of the water body which can be assessed to meet the quality standards for various uses and this leads to take necessary steps to restore and protect the quality and health of the water body. Moreover monitoring the water quality can help in detection of the water pollution and toxic chemicals discharged in the water which leads to contamination of the water. In water quality monitoring systems characteristic parameters collected are temperature, pH and turbidity of the water from the water bodies. The Farmers can use the data and find the place which is best suitable for agriculture, based on water sources. The government can also use the data for finding the purity of water bodies and ground water. The existing methods for detecting contamination levels are very tedious and in some cases the sample has to be taken to the lab for analysing. Some methods are not cost effective and cannot be used by all.
