Development Of Software For Water Pumping(Irrigation)System

ABSTRACT

This research work undertakes the development of water pumping system (with emphasis on

Irrigation) that is capable of automatically managing water budgets from a reservoir through

a microcontroller subsystem. The water pumping for irrigation system can be used in gardens,

farms, urban/rural water supply systems, and in fact, general water management systems for

both domestic and industrial applications. The key objective of this research is to develop a

user-friendly and efficient water management system that has the capability to irrigate farms

based on automated algorithm, logic and electronic circuitry. The entire water pumping

system is comprised water of store/reservoir, water-level sensor,(micro)controller, filter,

pump, valves, soil-moisture-content sensor and software system. In this study, most of these

were implemented but filters and valves were not implemented because of the scope of this

study. The Object Oriented System Analysis and Design (OOSAD) methodology was used

for the analysis and development of the system under consideration. The software application

communicates directly with a microcontroller unit and uses manual over-ride approach in

some cases to manage water budgets. The water-level sensor checks the level of water

storage in a reservoir and reports to an electronic controller; the soil-moisture-content sensor

checks the soil moisture content and also reports to the controller. The water pumping

software for irrigation system was developed using the following languages: C# for Windows

application development, for establishing routines and relationships; Embedded C was used

in defining status and processes in the Aduino Uno microcontroller; PHPMyAdmin as a

database management system and MYSQL relational database server version 5.5 as the

backend for storing user inputs from the frontend. The water-pumping software for irrigation

system provides the user interface providing irrigation in gardens or farms. The system was

able to perform as expected; pumping water from reservoir which can be used to irrigate farms or gardens.
