Abstract
In this project I created a real time water/liquid level measuring system. The main objective of this project is to predict flood conditions and to save human lives and to reduce the economic damage which can happened because of natural disasters. There are three
main components in this project. First one is the Sensor unit, this calculate water level measurements using Ultrasonic Range finder sensor. Then send those measurements to the Server. The second main component is the Multi-threaded Server Application, which is running on the server. Server application catches the data, which sent from the sensor unit and save those data into the database. This application can catch multiple data sent by the sensors separately at once. Third main component of the system is the Web Site. This shows all the data sent by the sensor units. In Sri Lanka there is no fully automated real time system to measure and predict flood situations. The existing process to monitor water levels is by manual calculation and processing of data and take decisions according to the information. Official person has to go to the measuring point and then he takes water levels. This system can’t identify the unexpected high-water levels and there is no any mechanism to measure water levels 24/7. In bad weather conditions this manual process can be fail. Unlike the existing manual system, this system does not require the user to take water levels. This is a fully automated process. Officials of the irrigation departments and other government responsible parties can use these data for their purposes. The main disadvantage of the existing system is, it is not automatically processed and can’t do in 24/7. After implementing a system in this caliber also leads to measure water levels from the far away places from the irrigation department offices. Water levels, which are sent by the sensor unit, can be compared to the manual process values to ensure the accuracy of the system.
