IoT-based agriculture monitoring platform architecture

Abstract

Abstract The research is aimed at solving one of the most urgent tasks of our time: the development of reliable and scalable software for monitoring the climate of agricultural fields. The goal is to create an architecture of simple and universal systems for collecting and storing data from various measuring devices located on agricultural land. The methodological basis for the monitoring system is the “Internet of Things” (IoT) approach. The agro-industrial complex of the Tomsk region (Russia) was chosen as a model object. About a hundred measuring devices have been installed in agricultural fields, which provide continuous delivery of data series in real time. Our developed platform includes both the server part of the application that processes and stores these weather data, and a convenient user interface for visualizing data to agronomists. The results of the research can be used in designing the architecture of similar IoT-based monitoring systems.
