Introduction
The aim of the project is to detect early risk of forest fires and to inform the forestry department to do prevention before the risk became a disaster. The sensors will sense the flammable gas in the air, rain intensity, temperature and humidity of both soil and air, it will also measure the wind speed and wind direction, ultraviolet and radiation from the sun. and if the time is enough i will try to add thermal image sensor. All of the measurement will be transmitted wirelessly to the concentrator station. And the data will be processed in the server side and will be uploaded in our website and sent also to the department of forestry for their analysis purposes.
BOM
The Methane/LPG sensor.
The anemometer.
LM35 4pcs for sensing the soil temperature in 4 different depths.
4 metal rod tube (i'm thinking to use copper to slow down the corrosion) for sensing the soil humidity.
SHT35.
Rain sensor.
UV and sun radiation sensor.
Thermal image sensor (maybe using Lepton)
IC 4052 for multiplexing sensors.
a few resistors for pull ups.
cables and connectors.
Battery 12V 8Ah.
Charge controller module.
RF Module 440MHz (i'm thinking to use Si4432 module or similar products)
Transistor Hybrid Power Amplifier Module from Mitsubishi to boost the transmit power (i'm thinking to use M57729H Module for 30W power).
a few capacitors and inductors.
PCB.
FeCl3`
Toner transfer paper and toner printer.
Schematics
Use Digi-Key's Scheme-It tool to draw your designs. After you are finished designing, click on the Share icon, and paste the "Share Link" to embed the design.
Instructions
The project was built with single layer home made PCB using transfer paper and feCl3 to etch the PCB.
The MAXIM Board soldered into the PCB. The power source from a solar cell and controlled by a charging controller module.
The power supply was regulated using LM7805.
