Abstract
In India, inland water pollution is a big problem due to the contamination of freshwater. Water quality measures must be gathered, processed, and valued in our country. The aquatic observatory is used to monitor water quality indicators continually. Creating an observatory that fits all the needs of potential customers is advanced work. A systematic design technique is required that incorporates user preferences and conditions. In this paper, the quality function deployment (QFD) method is used to build an aquatic observatory for water quality monitoring in Indian rivers. This study uses a tool from QFD’s house of quality (HOQ) to find design limits, explain the link between customer needs and obtain the matrix to meet customer needs. We also present how the design group is focused on making quality products. The quality Function Deployment (QFD) method is used for creating customer-centric products. The study results demonstrate the viability of applying QFD approaches to systematically construct the autonomous aquatic observatory to fulfill user needs. Additionally, there is a mapping between the design predicted parameters and a conceptual drafting design of an autonomous aquatic observatory.
