A Localized Data Logger for Water Related Disaster
Keywords:
Localized, Data Logger, Water Related DisasterAbstract
The study aimed to develop a localized data logger system for water related disasters. This study used applied development research design because it is focused on the development of a device. Since this was a developmental study, then there were details for the gathering of information on the testing of the device. The following were the significant findings derived from the study. Functionality test was conducted in Antiao River to come up with an assessment on how reliable the data are. A three-day test for the evaluation of the device that operated 24 hours. In addition, an effectiveness test of the mobile application was also conducted. Cost analysis was also presented to have a summary on the expenditure of the project. The following conclusions were considered, The data revealed that the functions of the product conform to the desired purposes of the study which are to log water level variation and flow rate. The product was reliable because of the consistency of its functions especially that it was operated in the Line-of-Sight propagation. The mobile application was also reliable for giving the logged data to the user. The product cost was very minimal on this type of project. The following recommendations were considered significant to enhance the capability of the developed product. To incorporate a sensor that could have a reading on the velocity on the rising of water.
