WaterMonitor

🎯 Project Goal

The primary goal of this project is to develop a floating base equipped with various sensors housed in a waterproof enclosure. The collected data is transmitted via XBee modules to a Raspberry Pi, where it will be stored in a database and displayed on a web interface.

📊 Data to Retrieve

List of Data to Collect:

• TDS (ppm): Total Dissolved Solids concentration (parts per million).
• pH: Acidity or basicity level of the solution.
• Dissolved Oxygen (mg/L): Concentration of dissolved oxygen in water.
• Conductivity (µS/cm): Electrical conductivity of the solution.
• Temperature (°C): Water temperature (may require a separate temperature sensor).

⚙️ Installation

Installing the ESP32 Board in Arduino IDE

1. Open Arduino IDE: Make sure you have the latest version installed.
2. Access Preferences: Go to File > Preferences.
3. Add Board URL: In the "Additional Board Manager URLs" field, add the following URL: https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json If there are already URLs in this field, separate them with commas.
4. Open Board Manager: Go to Tools > Board > Board Manager.
5. Search for ESP32: Type "ESP32" in the search bar and install the latest version of the ESP32 by Espressif Systems.
6. Select the ESP32 Board: Go to Tools > Board, and choose your specific ESP32 board.

Installing on Raspberry Pi

To set up the necessary environment on your Raspberry Pi, run the following command in the terminal:

curl -o install.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LordYoni/WaterMonitor/refs/heads/main/Raspberry/install.sh

This command modifies the permissions of install.sh, making it executable. It's necessary to do this before you can run the script.

chmod +x install.sh

This command downloads the installation script. Once downloaded, you can run it to install the required components.

sudo ./install.sh
