The Role of Satellite Zigbee Technology in Flood Monitoring and Communication System
India is facing a severe provocation with an increasing frequency of flood nowadays. It is pivotal to utilize the state of the art sensing and communication technologies to monitor and detect the flood occurrences. In this paper, various weather monitoring techniques have been reviewed. The system displays these readings in real time on a display. It also keeps track of historical information on an hourly and daily basis. The historical data can be pulled up on the display at the request of the user. Various techniques are used to monitor the weather like satellites, radars, microcontrollers, wireless sensor network and many other simple instruments. Weather can also be monitored by using remote wireless sensors. In this system we use ZigBee technology. ZigBee is the latest wireless weather monitoring techniques. The vital role of the designed satellite ZigBee technology in flood monitoring and communication system is based on Mobile App. This Mobile App is used to communicate with the people during flood times and is to continuously monitor, detect and report the environmental status to a control unit using water level sensor, satellite ZigBee and the readings are displayed in it. The main objective of this project is to rescue the people who are present in flood areas by sending and receiving the messages using this Mobile App. This system was developed using Embedded C language with the help of Proteus software. The developed system gives a timely alert of flood occurrences. The proposed system can be beneficial to the neighborhood and act as a precautionary action to save lives and properties of the people in the case of flood times.
