Abstract
The Solar-Powered Coastal Water Monitoring System was developed to specifically monitor the level and temperature of coastal water in real-time and generate a report from the collected data. The system is designed using an LM35 temperature sensor, PVC pipe with copper wires calibrated at actual metric measurement, a real-time clock, GSM, and a solar panel. The system was installed in a coastal area to test reliability, accuracy, and response time. The sensor was submerged in the coastal water to measure its level and temperature and transmit these data automatically every 6 hours daily or as specified. Selected fisher folks, IT experts, and a BFAR representative evaluated the system in terms of functionality, aesthetics, workability, durability, economy, and safety. The evaluation reveals that the system is excellent, as indicated by the overall mean of 4.40, which means that the system is beneficial to the residents of the community as well as the government agency that directly handles and monitors such information and reports.
