GSM MONITORING PROJECT UBC Sustaingineering is working in partnership with ENICALSA (Renewable solutions company in Nicaragua) to design and develop a 3G-network monitoring system for solar water pumps. There are currently 30 solar pumps systems installed in Nicaragua's country side whose functionality is currently being monitored by ENICALSA's team in-person.
The team is developing a remote monitoring platform that senses various operating parameters of the solar panels and water pumps such as the temperature, voltage/current, water pressure, and transmits this data through GSM/3G to a central base for its monitoring.
The front-end is handled by React, which is backed by Firebase. As our backend, firebase handles the auth, hosting, and storage.
Check out scripts/ to preview how to add sensor data to the RDB.
Run npm install after cloning the repo.
npm run start - start a local development server.
npm run build - build an optimized output to build/.
npm run deploy - deploy to firebase. Make sure you have auth permissions.
Firebase credentials are unique but non-secret, thus are committed.
