Tiivistelmä
A Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) is a type of wireless telecommunication wide area network designed to allow long range communications at a low bit rate among items (connected objects) such as sensors operated on a battery.
Firstround company was the commissioner of this thesis. The objectives of this thesis were to get know the sensor quality through working in the soil and by sending data into the Sigfox cloud, then receiving data through the smart devices and computer.
The goal of this project was to evaluate soil moisture by using several samples. Therefor a waterproof SHT-10 sensor was used to measure the soil moisture, temperature and water content in the soil.
Generally, to make this experiment, several measurements were used: a waterproof SHT-10 sensor, soil samples, a moisture container, a sensitive scale, a desiccator and an oven for drying.
My accomplishment with this project was to prove the average water content in the soil before and after drying. I also wanted to examine relationship between the soil moisture and temperature.
