Abstract


This paper presents the design and development of Environmental, Pollution and Soil Monitoring (EPSm) Station using the four – stage Architecture Design Modelling Development (ADMD) process. The Solar powered EPSm station uses indigenous technology to deliver about Thirteen (13) real time variables, on – board modelling, user-defined functions, remote data transmission to clients’ mobile phones and dedicated website while offering cost effectiveness among others. Data validation and calibration were done using known standard devices. The system was design to lodge data in Comma Separated Value (CSV) format in micro SD card with site coordinates and owner’s information stamped on the data table. The system is design to be highly modular in order to provide the ease of troubleshooting and maintenance if required. The overall features, capabilities and performance of the EPSm station positions it to be a one-stop facility for a wide scenario of environmental variability measurements and succour to research community.

Keywords: Automation, Calibration, Modularity, Simulation, Validation.
