Introduction

It also means that a network of sensors can be set up in a particular area of interest and communicate with each other to give a complete picture of what's going on there. This is especially useful for monitoring the quality of the water because changes in the environment can have serious effects downstream [1,2].

The Internet of Things (IoT) has gained popularity in recent years for a wide range of uses, including water quality monitoring. It is possible to continuously monitor the quality of water in real time using IoT devices like the Raspberry Pi and sensors that measure temperature, oxygen, and pH. Using programming languages like Python and Julia, this data can be gathered and analyzed to learn more about water management and make better decisions. A system with oxygen and temperature sensors, for instance, could be used to monitor a lake's or river's health. Potential problems like algal blooms or changes in the ecosystem can be identified by detecting changes in temperature and oxygen levels. In a similar vein, the acidity and pollution levels of water bodies can be measured using pH sensors and BOD sensors (biochemical oxygen demand) [3].

Methods

While there are undeniable advantages to using IoT for water quality monitoring, there are also some obstacles that must be taken into consideration. Data management is one of the most difficult issues because a large sensor network can generate a lot of data. In addition, it is essential to ensure the quality of the data because this is necessary for accurately predicting future conditions. In the Supplementary Materials, code samples for programming the Raspberry Pi using Julia and Python 3 are provided. The most difficult aspect of implementing an Internet of Things (IoT) system for water quality monitoring is a series of steps [4].

The infrastructure for networking and communication that will be used to send data from the sensors to a central server or cloud service is another. This may involve wired connections as well as wireless technologies like WiFi, Bluetooth, or cellular. An essential component of the Internet of Things system will be the software and algorithms used to process and analyze the data gathered by the sensors. Machine learning algorithms may be used to find trends and patterns in the data as part of this.

The IoT system will need to be tested to make sure it works properly after it has been designed and developed. The system can be put into use in the field to start collecting and sending data once testing is finished.

Discussion

Utilizing a Raspberry Pi for IoT and water quality estimation may have some potential drawbacks. These are some: 1) Insufficient processing power: Due to its relatively low power consumption, the Raspberry Pi may not be able to perform complex or resource-intensive tasks like advanced machine learning or data analysis algorithms. 2) Limited options for connectivity: The Raspberry Pi may not be able to communicate with other devices or services in an IoT network because it does not support all types of connectivity, like cellular and satellite. 3) Limited support for sensors: Some sensors, such as pH, Eh, or oxygen electrodes, may not be supported by the Raspberry Pi itself, necessitating the use of additional hardware or software to interface with them. 4) Lack of dependability: Because it is a single-board computer, the Raspberry Pi is susceptible to damage or failure if it is not handled or maintained appropriately. The integrity and dependability of the system-collected data could be jeopardized as a result of this [5].

Conclusion

The ability to continuously collect data, remotely access and analyze data, and quickly respond to any issues that may arise are just a few of the advantages that IoT technologies provide for water quality monitoring. It is possible to better manage and safeguard the quality of our water resources by utilizing these technologies. Continuous surveillance: IoT devices can continuously collect data on temperature, pH, and oxygen levels, providing a steady stream of information about water quality. This makes it possible to conduct assessments that are more frequent and comprehensive than would be possible with more conventional approaches like manual sampling and analysis.
