Design of remote irrigation system in farmland based on the cloud platform

Abstract

The traditional agricultural irrigation methods are often inefficient and consume a lot of manpower and water resources. In this paper, a lightweight remote irrigation system based on cloud platform technology is designed. With a networked computer, the user can control the irrigation machine through the network and view the field data. The system consists of host PC software, remote server software, intelligent controller and sensor components. The sensor collects parameters such as soil temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide concentration and passes these parameters to the controller. The remote server software receives the collected data into the Ali cloud database and sends the data to the PC client software through the cloud platform technology. PC client software can control the parameters of the irrigation machine, irrigation equipment to the scene in time and effective remote operation, which can achieve water-saving, provincial, fertilizer, and other effects.
