Abstract

This paper presents design of precision agriculture system infrastructure aiming at a multi-parameter monitoring system using wireless sensor network. Proposed infrastructure is based on low-power Intel’s Galileo Gen-2 platform for monitoring, controlling and decision-making support using Internet of Things (IoT). Collection of different farm field parameters is to be done using sensor nodes deployed in the farmland. Each node is connected wirelessly to the base station for the collection of data using wireless transreciever hardware platform. Data is then fed to the personal computer and displayed on screen, e.g. temperature, humidity, sprinkler water flow and soil moisture. From the collected data, decision-making and controlling action can be taken by the use of Internet of Things.
