The Development of Smart Irrigation System With IoT, Cloud, and Big Data

Abstract

Irrigation management in several developed countries now uses modern technology by utilizing the capacity of the Internet of Things and Big Data for leak detection, water measurement, planning, monitoring and distribution. The Internet of Things provides new solutions for the irrigation sector and helps improve irrigation management and reduce operational costs associated with maintaining infrastructure. One of the biggest problems facing smart irrigation systems in Indonesia is the inability of stakeholders to convert available data into in-depth and accurate information that can be used in decision making. The purpose of writing this article is to prepare the concept of building a smart irrigation system for the sustainable use of water for stakeholders. Analysis and approaches are carried out by reviewing the development of smart irrigation systems from the perspective of Industry 4.0 (big data and internet of things), identifying the use of IoT-based technology, innovation and data-science best practices that can transform organizations and institutions, irrigation users become more datacentered centric artificial intelligence. The results of this study propose innovative simple semantic solutions to help irrigation users or farmers to measure humidity, rainfall, wind speed, soil temperature and solar radiation in real-time through mobile application information to the water user community
