AUTOMATIC FLOOD MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM

[attachment=18430]

Problem Statement


With many regions getting flooded and with no proper monitoring and control of the flood waters, heavy loss of property and life are recorded each year.
There is an increasing need of monitoring and control of the flood waters in flood prone areas to minimize loss of property and life.


Definition of Project

This project describes the application of remotely sensed precipitation to the monitoring of floods in a region.
It describes the design of an intelligent embedded GSM auto-SMS system and its integration to automatic flood system to provide fast and reliable communication

Limitations

If your GSM network fails, the entire system crumbles.
If the pump fails, the water level cannot be controlled. Thus the whole region gets flooded.
If the HMI fails to update/recognize an event on time, then proper control cannot be coordinated.

Features

Automatic control of water pumping system
It is a cost effective manner to broadcast flood warnings to the civilians
Provides advanced warnings about water logged areas in a quick and effective manner
Allows emergency teams to plan and execute rescues in an effective manner
Provides efficient traffic control to minimize loss of life and property


Hardware

PC with minimum 256 MB RAM, Pentium 4 processor, 20 MB disk space.
Water level sensors by electrodes
Micro controller 89c51
Submergible water pump
GSM module and a rs232 cable
