In this project, we propose to design and build a buoy-based environmental monitoring system that runs on solar power and can measure aquatic environments' water quality indicators as well as meteorological conditions. A microcontroller, a wireless transmitter, weather sensors, water quality sensors, and solar panels are all integrated into the system on a buoy platform. The system is continuously powered by solar panels, which guarantees independent functioning and reduces the need for regular battery changes. While water quality sensors keep an eye on things like pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and certain impurities in the water, weather sensors measure things like temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind speed, and wind direction. A microcontroller organizes data transmission via a wireless transmitter, interprets sensor data, and manages power. For real-time processing, the gathered data is sent to a distant station or server.
