Abstract:
Monitoring of large-scale crops may require Wireless Sensor Networks to collect information in real time. These networks require the integration of diverse devices and sensors. Middlewares have been used to facilitate the integration of heterogeneous applications and services. This article presents SAMIoT, a middleware aimed at improving the production of sugarcane through the optimization of water use. The middleware monitors the matric potential of the soil to determine the right moment to irrigate. A solution based on the proposed middleware was developed for the sugarcane crops in the Cauca River Valley in Colombia.
