II. INTRODUCTION

The results would be reliable by using sensors to analyze

climatic conditions and the entire system will use less
resources, and there will be faster response. This system
includes wireless technology, which also has Wi-Fi
connectivity. Here the weather conditions are controlled and
the data is updated on the website. A weather monitoring
system could be understood as a system that gives us weather
reports in our environment which makes it intelligent and
interactive through wireless communication with objects. For The implemented system consists of Nodemcu

of downpour sensor is turning out to be increasingly more
mainstream constantly. This specific sensor utilizes a plug
circle that grows when there is precipitation to gauge the degree
of precipitation. A pressing factor switch is then used to break
the electrical association which makes the sprinklers turn on
and off.

MQ-135:
Here we used ESP8266 Wi-Fi module which is having TCP/IP
protocol stack integrated on chip. So that it can provide any
microcontroller to get connected with Wi-Fi network. ESP8266
is a preprogrammed SOC and any microcontroller has to
communicate with it through UART interface.. It works with a
supply voltage of 3.3v. The module is configured with AT
commands and the microcontroller should be programmed to
send the AT commands in a required sequence to configure the
module in client mode. The module can be used in both client
and server modes.

SENSORS:

DHT11:
Carbon Monoxide (CO) sensor, suitable for sensing CO
concentrations in the air. Fig. 4 Carbon Monoxide (CO) sensor
MQ 6 Carbon monoxide sensor, suitable for sensing CO
concentration in air. The MQ-6 can sense CO-gas concentration
somewhere in the range of 20 to 2000ppm. This sensor has a
high affectability and quick reaction time. The sensor's yield is
analog resistance. The drive circuit is exceptionally
straightforward; you should simply control the heater curl with
5V, include a load resistance, and associate the output to an
ADC. The standard reference strategy for the estimation of
carbon monoxide concentration in air depends on the ingestion

the data logging systems, they fit into a little rucksack or even
a pocket. Conversion factors

BMP-180:
This sensor prevents the sprinklers from turning on when the
precipitation cup fills to a specific level. An issue to know
about with this sort of sensor is a bogus top off. Leaves,
garbage, and even bugs or irritations can top off the assortment

 we can produce a quick visualization of our live data, and can
also send warning notifications.

The BMP180 is a piezoresistive sensor that detects pressure.

Piezoresistive sensors are made up of a semiconducting
material (usually silicon) that changes resistance when a
mechanical force like atmospheric pressure is
applied.The BMP180 measures both pressure and temperature,
because temperature changes the density of gasses like air. At
higher temperatures, air is not as dense and heavy, so it applies CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
less pressure on the sensor. At lower temperatures, air is more
dense and weighs more, so it exerts more pressure on the sensor.
The sensor uses real-time temperature measurements
to compensate the pressure readings for changes in air
density.The BMP180 has a 176 bit EEPROM that contains 11
different calibration coefficients that are unique to each sensor.
These, along with the UP and UT, are used to calculate the true
barometric pressure and temperature.

SOFTWARE:
Arduino IDE:

The Arduino IDE supports the languages C and C++ using

special rules of code structuring. The Arduino IDE supplies a
software library from the Wiring project, which provides many
common input and output procedures. The Arduino IDE
employs the program avrdude to convert the executable code
into a text file in hexadecimal encoding that is loaded into the
Arduino board by a loader program in the board's firmware. The Dht11 sensor, BMP 180 sensor, rain sensor, all are

CONCLUSION: Bangalore, Karnataka, India.

Our System enables the environment to be selfprotected

(smart environment) by having the sensors integrated in
the monitoring environment. To implement this, sensors
need to be installed to capture and interpret data in the
particular area(environment). By adding sensors in the
system, we can put the world into real life, i.e., it can
interact across the network with other artefacts. The
product of the processing of data and data analysis will
then be made accessible via Wi-Fi to the end user. This
offers a clever means of tracking the atmosphere and an
effective, low-cost embedded system. With the Internet of
Things theory, which is experimentally tested to control
four parameters, which are temperature, humidity, rain
and CO can be monitored.
