Design of real-time gas Monitoring system Based-on Wireless Sensor Networks for Merapi volcano

Abstract

Focusing on the most active volcano Merapi, the role of ICT is crucial for improving the security and safety of the surrounding population. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) which has the capability of monitoring remote and rural areas could be a solution to the early detection of local volcanic activity. Focusing on the most active volcano Merapi, the role of ICT is crucial for improving the security and safety of the surrounding population. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) which has the capability of monitoring remote and rural areas could be a solution to the early detection of local volcanic activity. In this study, the raised topic is how to make the appropriate prototype WSN technology, sensors and integration models. The proposed system is expected to provide early detection of volcanology development solutions for the security and safety of people around Mount Merapi. In the early stages of research, the design is focused on the temperature and gas monitoring. The system is designed to address the challenges related to the location of the sensor where there is no electricity. In addition, to be more accurate, the sensing should be done at some point sources of gas blowouts.
