This project is part of a working, fully automated IOT (internet of things) water, wastewater management and irrigation system.
This is part of a project that was a product of a company myself and a few friends started out of university. The project was an automated (Internet of Things) based Rainwater, Greywater and Irrigation Smart System.
The system is able to smartly manage your house’s water supply by alternating between rainwater and municipal water – depending on the level of water in your tanks. It also smartly determines which water sources (Greywater, rainwater, municipal) will be used for irrigating your garden.
The system comes with a mobile app (available on iOS and android usng Ionic) that allows you to:
The system was also designed to be smart enough to make decisions based on the weather at your location (if it is raining, it will not irrigate). Unfortunately we never got around to fully implementing this functionality.
Also (rather unfortunately), myself and my co-founder had a bit of a meltdown as he wanted to focus on 'non-smart' such systems, and I wanted to go ahead with this. Thus I was edged out and this smart system project left in the past. So, in short, I am open sourcing all of the code in the hope that someone may find it of interest if they are trying to do something similar - it is quite rusty as it was a version 1, but it worked well enough and we actually have 3 systems still up and running and working with the app at time of writing.
Because of all of the various parts, (backend, broker, hardware) this project will likely not work out of the box. The app should work, but will not be linked to any systems. The repo is actually more to be used as a guideline as to how we went about building the systems, so that you can use it for educational purposes - and use bits of code you may want (MQTT, weather service etc. )
If you are interested in this project, please do not hesitate to reach out to me, and I will help you out as best I can.
