Aim & Objective: Aim of this project is to provide access to safe drinking water, specially the water that is contaminated after the massive floods. This project aims at bringing smarter and reliable ways for water testing processes in an
efficient way. Temperature, pH, Turbidity, Conductivity and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) are the parameters to be measured. To ensure more safety, device should be capable of providing real time updates. So in this project we designed real
time water quality monitoring system with the help of IoT.
