Independent Wireless Networking System for Environmental Monitoring

This study enunciates the construction of an electronic system for detecting and monitoring environmental conditions such as landslides, rock falls, flooding etc. The constructed system is totally independent and autonomous because of implementation of a wireless sensor network. The nodes of wireless sensor network can be either configured by user or by automation. Hence it becomes easier for constructing the network. The sensor node is constructed using a typical microcontroller along with a Radio communication unit. The collected information is correlated with parameters such as position, speed, inclination and temperature of all nodes in a consistent manner. This information is transmitted and maintained in a web server at remote which can be used for consultation of data later.
