Abstract
This paper dictates the damages caused by water and what can be done to resolve those issues by involving the Internet of things (IoT). Keeping the quality of water in check is today's ultimate objective. Thereby, to guarantee safe drinking water supply, the quality of water should be observed regularly. The use of IoT based solution, focused mainly on water quality monitoring has therefore been suggested. In order to support the issue, an IoT-based water quality checking network has been introduced that continuously monitors and evaluates the quality of water and tries to distinguish whether it is up to the mark for general use. This paper includes the use of specific sensors that calculates the various parameters of the quality of water which includes conductivity and dissolved oxygen (DO), turbidity, pH, and temperature. The values from the sensors have been measured and calculated using the microcontrollers. Then these processed remote values have been transmitted to the raspberry pi, the central controller which uses the Zigbee protocol. Lastly, all the data from the sensors are then accessible via cloud computing through any browser, on request.
