Water Quality Monitoring System for Vannamae Shrimp Cultivation Based on Wireless Sensor Network In Taipa, Mappakasunggu District, Takalar

Water quality is one of the factors that influence the cultivation of vannamei shrimp. Therefore it is necessary to periodically monitor water quality. In this study it was designed to monitor pond water quality parameters based on Wireless Sensor Network. This system is designed to monitor the parameters of temperature, pH and turbidity in the water of vannamei shrimp aquaculture ponds. This design consists of several transmitter units consisting of 3 sensor parameters namely ph sensor, temperature sensor and turbidity sensor which works to take a value data on shrimp pond water and then the value obtained is processed by Arduino devices. After that it is processed by the Xbee device to be sent to the receiver device. While the receiver unit consists of Xbee devices that work as recipients of data processed by Arduino then displayed on the LCD. The ESP8266 device functions as an internet link. From this device the data that has been obtained will be sent to the database using the internet. Then it can be seen in the web application that has been made. The results of the design show that the system can be used to monitor the quality of shrimp pond water by providing relevant information. After testing the sensor and calibration of the sensor, it was found that the average accuracy of the temperature sensor reached 97.75%, the pH sensor reached 98.84% and the turbidity sensor reached 99.73%.
