Abstract

Urban drainage systems play a crucial role in maintaining public health and environmental safety. However, conventional drainage monitoring methods rely on manual inspection, which is time-consuming, inefficient, and incapable of providing real-time information. To overcome these limitations, this project presents an IoT Controlled Drainage Monitoring System with Cloud Integration for continuous and remote monitoring of drainage conditions. The proposed system utilizes sensors to monitor key parameters such as water level and blockage conditions within drainage channels. The collected sensor data is processed by a microcontroller and transmitted to a cloud platform through wireless communication. The cloud server stores and analyzes the data, enabling real-time visualization and alert generation when abnormal conditions are detected. This allows authorities to take timely preventive actions, reducing flooding risks and maintenance costs. In addition, protective coatings are applied to drainage components and sensor housings to enhance resistance against corrosion, wear, and harsh environmental conditions. Coating characterization techniques such as hardness testing, surface roughness measurement, wear analysis, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) are employed to evaluate coating performance.
