Abstract
This study introduces HydroSignal, a low-cost, open-source platform designed to democratize hydrological monitoring by leveraging the power of Internet of Things (IoT) technology. With its web-based interface, HydroSignal aims to make vital hydrological data easily accessible to a wide range of users, including professionals, educators, and students, thereby promoting improved environmental awareness. Through the integration of IoT devices and user-friendly visualization elements, HydroSignal facilitates the real-time acquisition and presentation of various hydrological parameters. The platform's versatility is demonstrated through the four distinct use cases including, but not limited to, flood level and turbidity monitoring, rainfall data visualization, and simultaneous monitoring of soil moisture and temperature. These applications highlight HydroSignal's capability to support professionals, educators, and students, promoting an in-depth understanding of hydrological processes and environmental management. Demonstrating its versatility with applications ranging from monitoring water quality to providing flood level, HydroSignal improves our understanding and management of water resources. HydroSignal offers a promising solution pioneering for hydrological and environmental monitoring, improving the accessibility, communication, and visualization of data, and facilitating an interactive learning experience in hydroscience education and community engagement.
