Problem Definition» Monitoring environmental variables for

productivity, growth and quality of a plant

» Tracing down the local climate parameters in the different parts of greenhouses

» Using cabling for monitoring is expensive, vulnerable and not portable 3

Purposes» Periodically measure the temperature and light levels

inside the greenhouse

» Notify the greenhouse manager in case of a critical change in one of the measurements via E – mail and SMS.

» Major goal is to increase the productivity and quality of the plants in a greenhouse without observing it whole day.

How it works» Nodes in the sensor field measure periodically the temperature,

light and humidity.

» They send the measurements to gateway and then the server.

» The server will insert the data into a database.

» The web application will

provide a user interface

to analyze the condition

in greenhouse.
