Evaluación de sistemas IoT para monitoreo de variables ambientales y su aplicación en la producción agropecuaria.

Abstract

Since the measurement and monitoring of physical variables are of interest to the agricultural sector, their importance lies in the management of production processes and obtaining indicators that show the strengths or weaknesses in these processes. In this project a study and evaluation at a general level of the architecture for IoT systems is carried out. We focus on the investigation of application solutions in the agricultural and livestock sector. The implementation of a dashboard will be carried out on the IoT Atmosphere platform and on an infrastructure server in the cloud in this case in Google Cloud in which measurements of variables can be viewed in real time. Testing is done through Microchip's PIC-IoT development board, and also through software that simulates MQTT clients, such as MQTTX. Data is sent to platforms which display the readings of the monitored variables in real time. In the development of this work, what concerns the protocols and technologies that make up a functional architecture for an IoT system is evaluated. The process of implementation of services determined in a previous stage for the development of an IoT platform is also indicated.
