An Arduino-based sensor network to monitor environmental conditions of coffee trees.
Intended to compare the differences between two types of microclimate for coffee trees; shaded and unshaded environments.
Collect the following data from each tree:
- Amount of light
- Air temperature
- Soil moisture content
As of October 7, 2017 this project is still being developed. I am currently prototyping the circuit and all of the sensors, which I'm still researching and sourcing.
Current unit configurations and tests are being documented in the wiki
- Add SD Card adapter
- Add soil sensor
- Add light sensor
- Add solar panel
- Determine method for posting data online
- Organize circuit for project/gang box
- Evaluate battery life and consider physically smaller LiPo to replace current Li-ion battery
- Configure for SD Card adapter
- Add lowpower/sleep routines
- Power down sensors between data collection
(this is causing problems with TSL2561) - Configure Fona routines for data upload
- Add error handling and logging to SD, www, and via LED blink
-
Add error on bmp.getTemperature - Skip Adafruit IO conn attempt if wifi fails
- Fix failure to detect TSL2561 init fail
-
- Rotate log files
