IoTAgua: Intelligent Water Consumption Management System

The Internet of Things (IoT) brings a great change to the daily life and well-being of people. Sensors and platforms connected to the Internet transform the routine of users in a transparent and gradual way. This work proposes an intelligent water consumption monitoring system, associated to the construction of a database for analytical studies of stored values. The interconnected Internet system which controls the water supply process in residential and corporate environments, monitors the individual consumption of water outlets, detects leakages, send alerts and creates consumption graphs, thanks to a middleware able to manage sensors and trigger actions such as checking the tank level, measuring the water flow, and handling solenoid valves. The system, named IoTAgua, was implemented and simulation experiments were performed for its evaluation, considering two different scenarios.
