TREE NURSERY MONITORING

Over the past months we have been developing our own tree nursery monitoring and control system. We need to collect data about the climate as well as crucial metrics from the tree nursery to help us grow trees in the high altitude where the vegetation season is very short.

Fushë-Lurë weather

One part of out nursery monitoring system is a weather station located in the Fushë-Lurë nursery. The station is equipped with sensors that measure temperature, humidity, pressure and light intensity. The data is collected every 30 minutes and the graphs below present the data for the last 24 hours.

Second part of the monitoring system is a set of sensors that measure temperature, humidity inside the greenhouse as well as soil moisture in the different zones (up to 8) of the green house. The data is collected every 30 minutes and the graphs below present the data for the last 24 hours.

The monitoring system collects the diagnostic data about it's various functions. This helps us to improve the system based on the real world testing and data collected from the location.

At the moment we are collecting the GSM signal strength and the battery level of the system.

The battery level is particularly interesting when correlated with the sunlight as it gives an idea how we are able to charge the batteries (100% value) during the sunny days.
