Conclusions and Future Work

Greenhouses are one of the major ways in agricultural sciences to conduct research when they need controlled environment. For the environment the most important factors are temperature, pressure, humidity etc. Providing a way of continuous monitoring of these environmental changes helps the users to understand and analyze these components in a better way. These facilities are spread over vast area, which make it ideal for a use of Wireless Sensor Network with large number of nodes for monitoring data.

Sensor network is a collection of the sensor nodes which will send the data to the base station on a certain interval. Here we used the MTS400 and IRIS notes to collect and send data. The main idea of this project is to collect the atmosphere changes and send data wirelessly to a central server, processes raw data and stores it and allows it to be analyzed and displayed as needed. In our project we used mySQL database to store the data. The data is then displayed in webpages which are developed using PHP and Javascript.

Data Received and Stored

Website is used to display data from the data repository for further user analysis. Charts are used to visualize the data. Data is also displayed in tabular form for getting detailed variable values. Screenshots above from the web-pages show the interface how it looks like for the front end user. First screenshot show the table of received temperature data from node 1. The user can select any node that is useful for the required area for his analysis by selecting one from the dropdown. In the second screenshot visual chart of the temperature data is displayed with respect to time interval.
