Outline of Final Research Achievements

The result of this research is constructed the monitoring system using internet which is able to measuring soil moisture and salinity in high salt concentration of agricultural land. In the past, it was using data logger near of sensors. This study has made it possible to drastically reduce the burden of data acquisition. By deploying the system in Fukuoka, Saga, Kumamoto, and Tohoku, its importance and convenience were confirmed.
Through this study, we were able to inform the fact that the two problem "securing a power supply that can be provided stably for a long time" and "visualization of radio waves to confirm the cause of missing data" become more and more important in the IoT era.Consequently, it was possible to show the importance of technical education oriented the social implementation.
