    • Waste water and irrigation automation

      Hello,
      I am thinking of automating several activities I do around waste water (rain) and garden irrigation. The basic idea is to:

      • monitor water level in 2 tanks and 2 wells
      • based on level of water pump it over from one to another
      • send an alert via SMS gateway if any pump is broken
      • give visual representation of water level in wells and tanks (at minimum 0, 25, 50, 75 100%)
      • ability to manualy pump the water
      • all this by a Web GUI accessible from Internet.

      I am currently experimenting with Arduino platform but I am reaching limits of my capacity as hobbyist and also availability of finding a suitable level measurement sensors for wells (diameter 35cm, depth 5,5m and pump is fixed to a aluminium stick).

      I should also mention, that the wells and tanks areat several positions on my garden within 100m from house and there is 220V because of pumps.

      And lastly, since I am an IT guy, I would like to be able to change the logic of the system as neccessary.

      Is unipi a suitable platform for this.type of projects? And if so, are there any specialist available to help / cooperate on the system?

      Thanks.
