Abstract

This article is a development of soil moisture measurement systems of low-cost sensors installed in remote planting areas using Internet of Things (IoT). There are 3 sets of measurement systems that it separates installed in remote areas. The correlation equation is applied to convert the electric signal from measured the soil moisture by comparing soil moisture from the laboratory the gravimetric water content method. The soil moisture is measured continuously for 1 minute, every 30 minutes. When the data sent finish, the system work on sleep mode to save energy. The moisture value is calculated as the average data, then is sent to the storage system via a LoRaWAN wireless network. Three measured soil moisture values are sent to the memory card as well as keep into the google drive in the cloud system via the GSM wireless, and displayed on the NETPIE Dashboard. Furthermore, the energy from the solar system is employed in this measuring system having high-performance battery. Therefore, this automated instrumentation measurement of soil moisture content using IoT can be extremely useful determining plant growth, environmental, and agricultural applications and other applications.
