INTRODUCTION:

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated

computing devices, mechanical and digital machines,
objects, animals or people that are provided with
unique identifiers(UIDs) and the ability to transfer data
over a network without requiring human-to-human or
human-to-computer interaction.
 CASE STUDY

Monitoring of Beetroot State and Storage

Conditions
CHALLENGES
• Before putting into production, sugar beet is stored
on a pile field, which is an open concrete ground
divided into piles.
• Proactively monitor raw material temperature for
spotting the affected areas where rotting processes
could start.
• Sugar amount in the beet decreases over time.
Weather conditions, especially air temperature and
humidity, greatly influence processes taking place
in the piles outdoors.
 SOLUTION:
• GPS/GLONASS trackers employed
on a pile field: a pile forming machine
transporting beet from the dump site
to a pile, and a pushdozer dropping
some beet off to a water channel for
its further transportation to the sugar
plan.
• Svekla application via web services and
OpenWeatherMap via API for getting access to weather
data, including current temperature, humidity and
forecasts.
• the pile field was equipped with testing devices having
temperature sensors .
• The sensors communicate data to the gate via
LoRaWAN wireless network.
• The gate works in transparent bridge mode between
LoRaWAN and IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) networks and
sends the ASCII data stream inside TCP connection to
the IEEE 802.11 network segment.
METHODOLOGY
• IoT Platform started processing data received from the
field sensors, while data was relayed via a non-
standard protocol.
• IoT Platform let the manufacturing and
production team follow up the trends of beet sugar
amount decrease on every single pile section and stop
rotting processes.
the whole data array from various sources and using its
predictive analytics tools, the Platform made it possible to
identify values of critical importance, such as beet
keeping period considering weather forecasts, sugar
amount trend in a particular pile section, etc.
• GPS/GLONASS tracks the pile forming machine
transporting beet from the dump site to a pile.
• IoT platform gives the information about Temperature
on the pile section.
 • IoT Platform provides real-time
and holistic view of all processes
occurring on the pile field.
• Pile sections and field sensors are
visualized as geo-fences on a
multi-layer GIS map supporting
scaling and real-time changes.

• Depending on the
temperature level and
sugar amount, the
Platform provides
color-coded indication
on the map.
• System perfectly tracks failures, ensures root-
cause analysis with map visualization and SMS
or E-mail notifications.
ADVANTAGES OF IOT
• Customized set of alerts allows the system to
automatically monitor equipment and raw material
state failures.
• As for SMS notifications, they are sent via one of the
mobile operator’s SMS gateway using SMPP
protocol.
• User-friendly web interface supporting smartphones
and tablets.
• Easy data collection from different sources, so as to
integrate, analyze, and correlate various data sets .
• Real-time and history GPS/GLONASS vehicle
tracking .
• Easy integration with third-party applications and
services, such as 1C:Enterprise application and
OpenWeatherMap service.
DISADVANTAGES
• Some issues which have to be tracked properly in
order to attain the full benefit of it.
• Need availability on internet continuously.
• Rural part of the developing countries did not
fulfill this requirements.
• Fault sensor or data processing engines can cause
faulty which may lead to over use of water,
fertilizers and other wastage of resources.
• Require farmer to understand and learn the use of
technology.
CONCLUSION
• The system users may easily view both current
situation on the pile field and forecasts, as well as
drill down to historical or detailed data on a certain
pile section or piece of equipment when necessary
by clicking on the objects.
• After implementation of the system in the
production facilities, beet storage and handling
conditions have been significantly optimized,
which highly increased economic indices.
