Abstract
domestic use, food production or recreational purposes. Controlled water supply and sanitation, and better management of water resources, can boost countries' economic growth and can contribute greatly to poverty reduction. Water wastage is inevitable when there is no personnel or technician to control the water level as at when due. Therefore, there is need for water management system. In this project, a system is designed to monitor the water level in the reservoir and offer a command for irrigation. It implements an ultrasonic sensor, microcontroller, communication module and LCD display. It monitors the level of water in a reservoir and communicates this state via SMS to the person in charge. The system through the ultrasonic sensor measures the distance from the sensor to the liquid surface by ultrasonic signal and the microcontroller turns on the water pump when the water level is low by receiving a command from the user’s handset. In a condition when the water level got full, the microcontroller first turned off the water pump and then send a notification to the user indicating the level of water in the reservoir. The system was tested and all the expected notification on the system’s state (available water) were received as SMS and displayed on the LCD.
