Low-cost ultrasonic sensors for in-field experimentation data collection
ABSTRACT Surface runoff monitoring is important for the sustainable management of global water resources. Obtaining a practical and inexpensive method for collecting data in the field can help to better understand surface runoff and its effects, necessary for the management of watersheds. This study sought to elaborate the calibration curves of the ultrasonic sensor due to temperature variability, verifying the inaccuracy of the distance between objects and the sensor, and determining the feasibility of using low-cost sensors in an in-loco experiment installed on Parshall flumes. The experiment was conducted on the Experimental Farm of the Federal University of Grande Dourados, Dourados, MS, Brazil. The data were collected by twelve HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensors , which were coupled to a data acquisition system composed of an expansion board connected to a Raspberry minicomputer. Sensor calibration using temperature data resulted in the error correction of ± 8.0 mm of distance reading. On the other hand, the R2 of the comparison curves between sensor and control system (laser distance meter and ruler in the flume) resulted in high values (above 0.95), showing the feasibility of its use and meeting the specifications for use in the field subject to weather conditions. This study demonstrates the performance of ultrasonic sensors as a potential for new application to evaluate surface runoff aiming to propose new runoff coefficients.
