Engineered Features
Building with precision and purpose
Smart Pump Monitoring
Monitors pump status and automatically alerts farmers via WhatsApp/SMS if pump runs over 2 hours
Structured Data Export
Exports data in JSON and Excel formats with farmer-wise categorization, including pump status and power metrics
Time-Based Analytics
Tracks on/off times, total runtime, and power interruptions for detailed operational insights
Power Quality Monitoring
Monitors power presence, voltage levels, and tracks power interruption periods for reliability analysis
📱 Innovation in Agricultural Data Management
FarmLink revolutionizes agricultural monitoring through advanced SMS data processing. The system captures and analyzes three critical message types: pump status updates, power interruption alerts, and power restoration notifications. As part of the World Bank-funded Digital Village Project, it provides detailed insights into pump operations, power conditions, and system performance through automated SMS extraction and structured data organization per farmer.
🎯 Addressing Data Management Challenges
✨ Our Solution
FarmLink transforms agricultural data management through intelligent IoT hardware integration and automated processing. The platform combines ESP32 microcontrollers with environmental sensors to monitor soil moisture, temperature, humidity, and pump operations in real-time. Data is collected via both direct sensor readings and SMS communication, then processed through mobile applications and synchronized with cloud infrastructure. This comprehensive approach eliminates manual data entry, ensures continuous monitoring, and provides real-time access to critical agricultural data for farmers through timely WhatsApp/SMS notifications. The system helps farmers prevent water wastage by alerting them when pumps run longer than 2 hours, while also providing valuable insights to government stakeholders across the Digital Village Project ecosystem.
