Water Tank Monitoring and Visualization System Using Smart-Phones

Monitoring sensor networks that consist of many valves, pumps and tanks is an important task for managing large ships. Existing water tank monitoring systems are only provided for PC environment. In this paper we propose a new method to monitor water tanks on a smart phone. Before presenting our system, we analyze the water tank system and define the discussed problem formally. Based on this analysis, we develop our monitoring system and elaborate on out the implementation. We also show that our system visualizes sensor data using a simple and intuitive user interface.
