Secure Cloud-based Remote Monitoring of Environmental Factors using Mobile and Web Apps for Industry Automation

Abstract

Climate factors like temperature and humidity has a major role to play in the productivity in an office workspace. Similarly, products like medicine and food have to be manufactured and stored in optimum environmental conditions. Thus, monitoring the factors like temperature and humidity of different part of an office space or manufacturing unit is very important. Studying these factors over time will help in finding the optimum temperature for different parts of the office. Periodic storage of the data on secure remote location such as a SQL database on the cloud opens possibilities for future analysis. Presence of an app-based and web-based portal for monitoring the temperature and humidity data makes remote monitoring easy. Such a system can ensure the conditions are monitored at all times and alerts can be given in case of a sudden peak or drop. Security and confidentiality of the data is very important and thus limiting the access to the database and even the web and app-based portals can ensure the data is visible only to authorized personal.
