Abstract

This chapter presents a wireless sensor network as a solution for environment monitoring in the context of smart grids in smart cities that combines the usage of two IoT solutions, one for measuring toxic gases, temperature, humidity, UV index and fire presence. and the other for monitoring the garbage collection by tracking the trucks and street sweepers carts movements to guarantee its coverage throughout the city. The two solutions shown effectiveness on obtaining this information dealing with internet connection oscillations, making the data available though a web application where the data can be exported. The tests not only proven its effectiveness as it shows a direction on a combined environmental monitoring that can address fire and environmental hazards using technology.
