Smart Agriculture
In this chapter, we are going to take our framework which we built in Chapter 2, IoTFW.js - I and Chapter 3, IoTFW.js - II, and start working on various use cases. We are going to start with the agricultural sector and build a smart weather station in this chapter.
A simple requirement for any farmer is to have the ability to understand the environmental factors near and around their farm. So, we are going to build a prototype of a portable weather station. We are going to work on the following topics in this chapter:
- Agriculture and IoT
- Designing a smart weather station
- Developing the code for Raspberry Pi 3
- Updating MQTT code in the API engine
- Modifying the templates for web apps, desktop apps, and mobile apps
