Resumen (en)

Understanding and protecting natural environments is essential for the survival of living beings, being water one of the vital elements for humans, therefore water resources and other elements must be monitored to understand and protect their environment, this leads to apply the Internet of Things (IoT) technology for monitoring environmental variables, in the stream La Siras, in the municipality of Duitama, department of Boyacá in Colombia. 

The IoT technology integrated with the ThingSpeak platform that allows collecting and analyzing data in real time, having a follow-up by reading each of the data captured by temperature, humidity and turbidity sensors, fundamental variables to evaluate the water quality and environmental conditions in the stream, the integration of the sensors through an Arduino board, which through a Wifi module sends the recorded data to the cloud on the ThingSpeak platform. 

The environmental monitoring system becomes a tool that facilitates real-time decision making by helping decision makers to act and manage processes and implement environmental protection measures based on accurate and current data. 

Resumen (es)

Comprender y proteger los entornos naturales es esencial para la supervivencia de los seres vivos, siendo el agua uno de los elementos vitales para los humanos, por lo anterior los recursos hídricos y otros elementos deben ser supervisados para comprender y proteger su entorno, esto lleva a aplicar la tecnología Internet de las Cosas (IoT) para el monitoreo de variables ambientales, en la quebrada La Siras, en el municipio de Duitama, departamento de Boyacá en Colombia.

La tecnología IoT integrada con la plataforma ThingSpeak que permite recopilar y analizar datos en tiempo real, teniendo un seguimiento por la lectura de cada uno de los datos capturado por sensores de temperatura, humedad y turbidez, variables fundamentales para la evaluar la calidad del agua y las condiciones ambientales en la quebrada, la integración de los sensores mediante una placa de Arduino, que a través de un módulo Wifi envía los datos registrados a la nube en la plataforma ThingSpeak.

El sistema de monitoreo ambiental se convierte en una herramienta que facilita en tiempo real la toma de decisiones ayudando a los responsables actuar y gestionar procesos e implementar medidas de protección ambiental basadas en datos precisos y actuales
