AN AUTOMATIC IRRIGATION CONTROL SYSTEM

Abstract

This paper presents the design and construction of an automatic irrigation
control system using a micro controller, the GSM technology, (MONI)
web application to remotely operate, control and access irrigation
equipment, such as sprinkler, solenoid valves, and pumps through remote
web application client like a web browser. Automatic irrigation control
system is the automatic control and monitoring to the status of garden
soils moisture, humidity, temperature and fertility .We demonstrate the
auto switching ON and OFF the electrical irrigation system equipment
controlled via a micro controller that manages a relay based on moisture
levels. Our findings indicate that monitoring this system may be done even
on a web internet through a computer where by the system administrator
alters settings and parameters for normal operation of the irrigation
system.
