Water quality is the main aspect to determine the quality of aquatic systems.
Poor water quality will pose a health risk for people and ecosystems. The old
methods such as collecting samples of water manually and testing and
analysing at lab will cause the time consuming, wastage of man power and
not economical. A system is needed to provide a real-time data for
environmental protection and tracking pollution sources. This paper aims to
describe on how to monitor water quality continuously through IoT platform.
Water Quality Catchment Monitoring System was introduced to check and
monitor water quality continuously. It’s features five sensors which are
temperature sensor, light intensity sensor, pH sensor, GPS tracker and Inertia
Movement Unit (IMU). IMU is a new feature in the system where the
direction of x and y is determined for planning and find out where a water
quality problem exists by determining the flow of water. The system uses an
internet wireless connection using the ESP8266 Wi-Fi Shield Module as a
connection between Arduino Mega2560 and laptop. ThingSpeak application
acts as an IoT platform used for real-time data monitoring.

1. INTRODUCTION
Water quality is one of the topics that is always sought. Water is the basic component of human
beings and other living organisms, therefore good quality of water is a must. In obtaining water quality, many
developments have been made to reach the watershed quality. N. Vijayakumar et. al. has discussed on how to
develop a low-cost system for real time monitoring of water quality in Internet of Things (IoT) continuously
[1]. Five parameters were measured which is temperature, pH, turbidity, conductivity and dis-solved oxygen
(DO). A microcontroller used for the system is raspberry Pi B+ and the data can be view on the cloud using
specific IP address.
Other water quality measurement system has also been discussed by Brinda Das et. al. [2]. They
used IoT platform to monitor water quality in real time. The system was designed to be more effective action,
economical, accurate, and required less man-power. The users can access data via ThingSpeak that monitor
three parameters which are pH, conductivity and temperature. Paper [3] authored by Ch. Sowmya et. al. also
monitors the three parameters but uses ZigBee Mesh network for convaying the result to users. Nahla Abdul
Jalil Salih et. al [4] proposed a system to moniter pH and temperature for fish pond’s water. A
microcontroller used for the system is Arduino UNO and the data can be view on handphone via Bluetooth
communication. The system has successfully been tested.

C. Z. Myint et. al. [5] proposed a new smart water quality monitoring system that can reduce the
power consumption with five criteria that have been measured which are pH, water level, turbidity, carbon
dioxide and water temperature. They used Cyclone V DE1-SoC FPGA board that receive the data collected
by sensor nodes. A smart water quality monitoring system for Fiji has been introduced by A.N.Prasad et. al.
[6]. The used IoT and remote sensing technology in the system. Four different water sources were tested with
four condition of water quality which are pH, conductivity, temperature and oxidation-reduction potential
(ORP) within 12 hours at hourly interval to test system accuracy. A.A. Pranata et. al. in [7] measures three
parameters including temperature, pH and DO with ZigBee protocol for nodes communication.
In paper [8] written by T.I. Salim, they proposed to uses Online Water Quality (OWQ) with
continuous data sampling with higher sampling rate in the system. Seven parameters have been measured
which are dissolved gas, acidity, temperature, turbidity, conductivity, salinity, and total dissolved solid
(TDS). Next, the data can be easily view and monitor via Favoriot platform in paper [9]. A. Latiff et. al.
applied five sensors in the system which are pH, temperature, ORP, DO, and electrical conductivity (EC).
C.Z. Myint et. al. in another paper [10], has designed the system to reduce critical issue for water pollution.
They design WSN based reconfigurable smart sensor interface for water quality monitoring system in an IoT
platform. Water quality condition such as pH, water level, turbidity, CO2 and water temperature have
been analysed.
K. H. Kamaludin in [11] was discussed on implementation of RFID in water quality monitoring
system. The purpose is to communicate into a single platform for water quality monitoring. While, C.
Encinas et. al. proposed to solve the issue of aquaculture areas that lag behind the technology [12]. The
systems will monitor based on wireless sensor network via IoT. The system will measure the pH, temperature
and DO of water with a benefit of low-cost, portable, modular, versatile and allows sharing information
through the cloud. With an extra electrical conductivity sensor, Lambrou et. al. in their paper [13] has
developed a water quality monitoring systems using PIC32 MCU with ZigBee as its communication module.
Mohammad Azman Miskan et. al. in paper [14], monitors temperature and DO and relay the information via
RF transceiver.
Extending water quality monitoring done by previous author, K. Raghu Sita Rama Raju et. al. in
paper [15] also includes monitoring of Ammonia, Salt, Nitrate and Carbonates besides monitoring DO, pH
and temperature. The system uses Raspberry pi3 with IoT connection to phone but the IoT connection was
not discussed in the paper. Based on the result, the hardware has successfully monitors all seven parameters.
Paper [16] also designed a system to log the seven parameters but using WaspMote instead of Raspberry pi3.
Tomoaki Kageyama in [17] has developed a wireless sensor network platform. The platform as
mention from the paper utilizes three sensors which is conductivity sensor, temperature sensor and
illuminometer. Unfortunately, the paper does not mention the microcontroller/microprocessor used. The data
obtained was relayed to Google spreadsheet via 3G network.
pH, Oxygen level and Turbidity was measured in the system design by Kulkarni Amruta M. et. al. in
paper [18]. Utilizing ARM7 as its processor, the data obtained is relayed to the main computer via Zigbee.
The data is then analyzed via MATLAB and displayed to the user using GUI created via VB 6.0. Khetre et.
al. in paper [19] also uses ARM7 processor. They use the processor for water quality monitoring of
temperature, turbidity, water level and salinity.
Nidal Nasser et. al. has also designed a wireless water quality monitoring system which utilizes pH
sensor in paper [20]. The system uses multiple ZigBee as sensor nodes which will relay information from pH
sensor to the Base Station. The Base Station will then relay the information to data center and client server
via internet connection. The system also incoperates sleep scheduling mechanism in the sensor nodes to
prolong its network lifetime.Component combination of LDR and LED has been used to develop a turbidity
sensor in paper [21]. Intel Galileo Gen 2 was used as the systems microcontroller which was connected to
ThinkSpeak via ESP82566 wifi module. The system has successfully been tested and shows good result for
obtaining turbidity in flowing water.
F. R. Islam et. al. in their paper [22] has developed a system which measures pH, Conductivity,
Temperature and ORP. By utilizing a controller connected to a mobile phone, the system can acquire Global
Positioning System (GPS) coordinate and Global System for Mobile (GSM) communication. With this, GIS
mapping of the measurement is able to be done. With an absence of OPR, He et. al. in their paper [23] utilize
CC2430 MCU for its microcontroller and ZigBee as its communication module. Similarly, Rasin et. al. in
paper [24] also developed water quality monitoring system for monitoring temperature, pH and turbidity but
uses Ti based microcontroller, TI 8051.
This paper discussed the development of water quality catchment monitoring system which
integrates pH, light intensity, temperature, GPS, and IMU readings. Based on the literature done, none of
them includes IMU reading. The developed system is a passive system which has no propulsion system. The
system could only move by utilizing the water flow. Since the distribution of polutent is also due to water

flow, measuring the motion of the system using IMU will also measure the water flow. With the water flow
and other sensor reading acquired, it is possible to predict the source of contamination. The prediction
method will be discussed in other future papers. The developed system has been tested at lake in UMP Pekan
Campus, Pahang, Malaysia and leads to promising result.
2. RESEARCH METHOD
2.2. Hardware development
The Water Quality Catchment Monitoring System in this paper is an upgrade version from previous
development which can be seen in paper [25]. This version includes IMU and ThinkSpeak in order to
increase the capability of the system to be used to monitor mater movement. The block diagram of the system
can be seen in Figure 1. The system includes pH, Light Intensity, Temperature, GPS, IMU and Wi-Fi shield.
The Wi-Fi shield is use to replace XBEE from previous system. With the Wi-Fi shield, the data acquired
which is the pH, Light Intensity, Temperature, GPS, IMU and Wi-Fi shield can be access directly from
ThinkSpeak from any internet connected terminal. The data was also logged into the onboard logger and
analyze using MATLAB. The specification of each sensor can be seen in Table 1. The system in Figure 1
was installed in a 3D printed casing as shown in Figure 2. The bottom of the casing is attached with four ½
tennis ball and polystyrene sheet to improve buoyancy and stability.

2.2. Test procedures and assumptions
Testing of the system was done at UMP’s lake near the library. The circumference of the lake is
about 1.6 km which is big enough to be set as testing area. 16 sites on the lake were chosen as acquisition
sites. The sites can be seen in Figure 3 and their GPS coordinate can be seen in Table 2.

To eliminate any water ripple while taking experimental data, the system is deployed and is fixed to
a rope as can be seen in Figure 4. For location L16, the system is deployed via a canoe. For location L16, the
data was taken around 10 minutes after the system is set to reduce the effect of ripple due to the operation of
the canoe. In real life application, the system is left free on the water without any rope. Each location is
sampled for 5 minutes and took around 4 hours to complete all 16 locations. The data was taken during the
afternoon and an assumption has been made that the wind does not change during the duration of the time.
Fortunately, during the acquisition of data, there were no other canoes operating on the premise. For this test,
the data was taken directly from the system to reduce collection time. Based on this assumption and set-up,
the result and discussion can be seen in the following section.

3. RESULTS AND ANALYSIS
The system was implemented at UMP’s lake and results were obtained. For each location, the data
including temperature, pH, light intensity and IMU were analysis by applying box-plot graph technique and
plotting its mean directly on the map. The location is determined from the coordinate given by GPS Tracker
in the system. 50 data samples for each location have been collected and analyze to plot in boxplot.
3.1. Acidity
Figure 5 shows the boxplot graph of acidity in terms of pH for every 16 locations. pH value for
every locations are different from value of 5.90 until 7.23. Location 5 shows a highest pH value which is
7.23. The value is still in normal condition of water as the neutral water value is 7. At location 16, there are
numerous outliers. Since the utilization of a canoe to deploy the system at location 16, the water seems to be
agitated. This may be the reason for the outliers. The average value of pH for all locations is 6.97.
Figure 6 shows a map with its data collection point colored with the mean pH value of the location.
The arrow shows the increase acidity of the water. Referring to Figure 6, location L5, L9 and L15 shows
almost neutral water. From location L5 to L3, the acidity increased (as pH value decrease, acidity increased).
This is similar from location L9 to L16, L9 to L12 and L15 to L3. Evidently, location L3 shows a higher
acidity level compared to other locations. The center of the lake shows midpoint between the highest and
lowest pH value of the whole lake.

3.2. Temperature
Figure 7 shows the boxplot graph of temperature for every 16 locations. The temperature sensor on
the system only acquires surface temperature. The temperature values for all locations are varied from
26.0˚C-33.9˚C. Location L9, L10, L13 and L14 exhibit lots of outliers. These outliers may be due to water is
agitated and temperature variation from the effect of wind. Near these locations, there are no obstacles to be
found. The average value of temperature for all locations is 32.67˚C.
Figure 7. Temperature boxplot
Figure 8 shows a map with its data collection point colored with the mean temperature value of the
location. The arrow shows the decreasing temperature of the water. Referring to Figure 8, location L4 has the
highest value and the temperature decrease as the location increases and is shown by the anticlockwise arrow.
The temperature also decreases as the location decreases from L4. Temperature reading at location L1, L13,
L14 and L15 apparently has no distinct relationship with the other locations. The center of the lake shows
midpoint between the highest and lowest temperature value of the whole lake.

3.3. Light intensity
Figure 9 shows the boxplot graph of light intensity for every 16 locations. The light intensity
measured here is the light from the LED when it hits the light dependent resistor (LDR). Outside light is
barred by the 3D printed casing. This method is used to measure the turbidity of the water. The higher the
Lux measured by the LDR, the lower the turbidity. The average value of light intensity for all locations is
1340.32 lux. The value is varied from 438.13 lux until 4343.05 lux. Location 3, 4, 9, 10 and 11 shows the
highest intensity of water which means the water at that location is clear. A lot of outliers can be seen at
location L4, L9, L11 and L16. This shows that at that particular location, random agitation occurred. The
random agitation may be due to the presence of aquatic life swimming across that area.
Figure 10 shows a map with its data collection point colored with the mean lux value of the location.
The arrow shows the increasing light intensity of the water. Referring to Figure 10, location L2, L8, L13, L14
and L15 has a light intensity value less than 1000 lux. This shows that, this area has high turbidity.
Observation at this location shows that numerous fish has been sited. Apparently this location is famous
among the campus citizen for fish feeding. The highest value iand the temperature decrease as the location
increases and is shown by the anticlockwise arrow. The temperature also decreases as the location decreases
from L4. Temperature reading at location L1, L13, L14 and L15 apparently has no distinct relationship with
the other locations. The center of the lake shows mid-point between the highest and lowest temperature value
of the whole lake.

3.4. X-Y acceleration
Figure 10 and 11 shows x and y-axis acceleration respectively for every 16 locations. The data is
collected with the x-axis accelerometer is pointed North and y-axis accelerometer is pointed East. With the
aid of GPS, the use of IMU for collecting x and y-axis acceleration data is for monitoring water movement.
Referring to Figure 10, the value of x-axis is varied from -9.7 m/s2
to 11 m/s2
. The wave and wind factor
influenced the reading. Location L14, L15 and L16 shows the presence of outliers which is exceed to the
lower limit and upper limit for box-plot. Large range of acceleration can be seen at location L16 which is
situated in the middle of the lake. This may be due to excessive water agitation due to the rocking canoe.
Referring to Figure 11, the minimum and maximum y-axis acceleration for all locations is from-8.8
m/s2
to 4.5 m/s2
. Location L6 till L12 seems to be stagnant whereas location L16 shows large variation in
acceleration. Similar to x-axis acceleration, the y-axis acceleration at location L16 may be due to excessive
water agitation by rocking canoe. This can be resolved if the system where to be deployed and left until the
rocking water has subdued before the data is collected. Both x and y-axis mean acceleration data is plotted on
the acceleration map and can be seen in Figure 13. Referring to Figure 13, the location which is near the bank
has almost the same mean data whereas the highest mean acceleration data can be seen at the middle of the
lake. The location of the testing may not be suitable for collecting acceleration data since all location is near
the bank.

4. CONCLUSION
The development of IoT based water quality catchment monitoring system has successfully
collected data continuously in terms of acidity, temperature, light intensity, location and acceleration. All
data has been plotted on the site map and it is evident that all data correlation between all locations can be
clearly seen. X-Y axis acceleration data need to be processed further for it to be useful. The analysis data
could be used to predict the pollution sources in the water by implementing prediction algorithm which will
be done next in this research which will be discussed in future paper. The system is successfully developed
but there is room for improvement.

F. Abas, Mohamad Khairul Anwar Abu Bashri, N. Md. Saad, M. H. Ariff Faculty of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Universiti Malaysia Pahang, Malaysia Article Info ABSTRACT Article history: Received Mar 29, 2019 Revised May 19, 2019 Accepted Jun 28, 2019 Water quality is the main aspect to determine the quality of aquatic systems. Poor water quality will pose a health risk for people and ecosystems. The old methods such as collecting samples of water manually and testing and analysing at lab will cause the time consuming, wastage of man power and not economical. A system is needed to provide a real-time data for environmental protection and tracking pollution sources. This paper aims to describe on how to monitor water quality continuously through IoT platform. Water Quality Catchment Monitoring System was introduced to check and monitor water quality continuously. It’s features five sensors which are temperature sensor, light intensity sensor, pH sensor, GPS tracker and Inertia Movement Unit (IMU). IMU is a new feature in the system where the direction of x and y is determined for planning and find out where a water quality problem exists by determining the flow of water. The system uses an internet wireless connection using the ESP8266 Wi-Fi Shield Module as a connection between Arduino Mega2560 and laptop. ThingSpeak application acts as an IoT platform used for real-time data monitoring.

INTRODUCTION Water quality is one of the topics that is always sought. Water is the basic component of human beings and other living organisms, therefore good quality of water is a must. In obtaining water quality, many developments have been made to reach the watershed quality. N. Vijayakumar et. al. has discussed on how to develop a low-cost system for real time monitoring of water quality in Internet of Things (IoT) continuously [1]. Five parameters were measured which is temperature, pH, turbidity, conductivity and dis-solved oxygen (DO). A microcontroller used for the system is raspberry Pi B+ and the data can be view on the cloud using specific IP address. Other water quality measurement system has also been discussed by Brinda Das et. al. [2]. They used IoT platform to monitor water quality in real time. The system was designed to be more effective action, economical, accurate, and required less man-power. The users can access data via ThingSpeak that monitor three parameters which are pH, conductivity and temperature. Paper [3] authored by Ch. Sowmya et. al. also monitors the three parameters but uses ZigBee Mesh network for convaying the result to users. Nahla Abdul Jalil Salih et. al [4] proposed a system to moniter pH and temperature for fish pond’s water. A microcontroller used for the system is Arduino UNO and the data can be view on handphone via Bluetooth communication. The system has successfully been tested.
  • 2.  ISSN: 2302-9285 Bulletin of Electr Eng and Inf, Vol. 8, No. 4, December 2019 : 1373 – 1382 1374 C. Z. Myint et. al. [5] proposed a new smart water quality monitoring system that can reduce the power consumption with five criteria that have been measured which are pH, water level, turbidity, carbon dioxide and water temperature. They used Cyclone V DE1-SoC FPGA board that receive the data collected by sensor nodes. A smart water quality monitoring system for Fiji has been introduced by A.N.Prasad et. al. [6]. The used IoT and remote sensing technology in the system. Four different water sources were tested with four condition of water quality which are pH, conductivity, temperature and oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) within 12 hours at hourly interval to test system accuracy. A.A. Pranata et. al. in [7] measures three parameters including temperature, pH and DO with ZigBee protocol for nodes communication. In paper [8] written by T.I. Salim, they proposed to uses Online Water Quality (OWQ) with continuous data sampling with higher sampling rate in the system. Seven parameters have been measured which are dissolved gas, acidity, temperature, turbidity, conductivity, salinity, and total dissolved solid (TDS). Next, the data can be easily view and monitor via Favoriot platform in paper [9]. A. Latiff et. al. applied five sensors in the system which are pH, temperature, ORP, DO, and electrical conductivity (EC). C.Z. Myint et. al. in another paper [10], has designed the system to reduce critical issue for water pollution. They design WSN based reconfigurable smart sensor interface for water quality monitoring system in an IoT platform. Water quality condition such as pH, water level, turbidity, CO2 and water temperature have been analysed. K. H. Kamaludin in [11] was discussed on implementation of RFID in water quality monitoring system. The purpose is to communicate into a single platform for water quality monitoring. While, C. Encinas et. al. proposed to solve the issue of aquaculture areas that lag behind the technology [12]. The systems will monitor based on wireless sensor network via IoT. The system will measure the pH, temperature and DO of water with a benefit of low-cost, portable, modular, versatile and allows sharing information through the cloud. With an extra electrical conductivity sensor, Lambrou et. al. in their paper [13] has developed a water quality monitoring systems using PIC32 MCU with ZigBee as its communication module. Mohammad Azman Miskan et. al. in paper [14], monitors temperature and DO and relay the information via RF transceiver. Extending water quality monitoring done by previous author, K. Raghu Sita Rama Raju et. al. in paper [15] also includes monitoring of Ammonia, Salt, Nitrate and Carbonates besides monitoring DO, pH and temperature. The system uses Raspberry pi3 with IoT connection to phone but the IoT connection was not discussed in the paper. Based on the result, the hardware has successfully monitors all seven parameters. Paper [16] also designed a system to log the seven parameters but using WaspMote instead of Raspberry pi3. Tomoaki Kageyama in [17] has developed a wireless sensor network platform. The platform as mention from the paper utilizes three sensors which is conductivity sensor, temperature sensor and illuminometer. Unfortunately, the paper does not mention the microcontroller/microprocessor used. The data obtained was relayed to Google spreadsheet via 3G network. pH, Oxygen level and Turbidity was measured in the system design by Kulkarni Amruta M. et. al. in paper [18]. Utilizing ARM7 as its processor, the data obtained is relayed to the main computer via Zigbee. The data is then analyzed via MATLAB and displayed to the user using GUI created via VB 6.0. Khetre et. al. in paper [19] also uses ARM7 processor. They use the processor for water quality monitoring of temperature, turbidity, water level and salinity. Nidal Nasser et. al. has also designed a wireless water quality monitoring system which utilizes pH sensor in paper [20]. The system uses multiple ZigBee as sensor nodes which will relay information from pH sensor to the Base Station. The Base Station will then relay the information to data center and client server via internet connection. The system also incoperates sleep scheduling mechanism in the sensor nodes to prolong its network lifetime.Component combination of LDR and LED has been used to develop a turbidity sensor in paper [21]. Intel Galileo Gen 2 was used as the systems microcontroller which was connected to ThinkSpeak via ESP82566 wifi module. The system has successfully been tested and shows good result for obtaining turbidity in flowing water. F. R. Islam et. al. in their paper [22] has developed a system which measures pH, Conductivity, Temperature and ORP. By utilizing a controller connected to a mobile phone, the system can acquire Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinate and Global System for Mobile (GSM) communication. With this, GIS mapping of the measurement is able to be done. With an absence of OPR, He et. al. in their paper [23] utilize CC2430 MCU for its microcontroller and ZigBee as its communication module. Similarly, Rasin et. al. in paper [24] also developed water quality monitoring system for monitoring temperature, pH and turbidity but uses Ti based microcontroller, TI 8051. This paper discussed the development of water quality catchment monitoring system which integrates pH, light intensity, temperature, GPS, and IMU readings. Based on the literature done, none of them includes IMU reading. The developed system is a passive system which has no propulsion system. The system could only move by utilizing the water flow. Since the distribution of polutent is also due to water

With the water flow and other sensor reading acquired, it is possible to predict the source of contamination. The prediction method will be discussed in other future papers. The developed system has been tested at lake in UMP Pekan Campus, Pahang, Malaysia and leads to promising result. 2. RESEARCH METHOD 2.2. Hardware development The Water Quality Catchment Monitoring System in this paper is an upgrade version from previous development which can be seen in paper [25]. This version includes IMU and ThinkSpeak in order to increase the capability of the system to be used to monitor mater movement. The block diagram of the system can be seen in Figure 1. The system includes pH, Light Intensity, Temperature, GPS, IMU and Wi-Fi shield. The Wi-Fi shield is use to replace XBEE from previous system. With the Wi-Fi shield, the data acquired which is the pH, Light Intensity, Temperature, GPS, IMU and Wi-Fi shield can be access directly from ThinkSpeak from any internet connected terminal. The data was also logged into the onboard logger and analyze using MATLAB. The specification of each sensor can be seen in Table 1. The system in Figure 1 was installed in a 3D printed casing as shown in Figure 2. The bottom of the casing is attached with four ½ tennis ball and polystyrene sheet to improve buoyancy and stability.

Test procedures and assumptions Testing of the system was done at UMP’s lake near the library. The circumference of the lake is about 1.6 km which is big enough to be set as testing area. 16 sites on the lake were chosen as acquisition sites. The sites can be seen in Figure 3 and their GPS coordinate can be seen in Table 2. Figure 3. Testing locations (underlay map is from google map) Table 2.

For location L16, the system is deployed via a canoe. For location L16, the data was taken around 10 minutes after the system is set to reduce the effect of ripple due to the operation of the canoe. In real life application, the system is left free on the water without any rope. Each location is sampled for 5 minutes and took around 4 hours to complete all 16 locations. The data was taken during the afternoon and an assumption has been made that the wind does not change during the duration of the time. Fortunately, during the acquisition of data, there were no other canoes operating on the premise. For this test, the data was taken directly from the system to reduce collection time. Based on this assumption and set-up, the result and discussion can be seen in the following section. Figure 4. Collecting data

RESULTS AND ANALYSIS The system was implemented at UMP’s lake and results were obtained. For each location, the data including temperature, pH, light intensity and IMU were analysis by applying box-plot graph technique and plotting its mean directly on the map. The location is determined from the coordinate given by GPS Tracker in the system. 50 data samples for each location have been collected and analyze to plot in boxplot. 3.1. Acidity Figure 5 shows the boxplot graph of acidity in terms of pH for every 16 locations. pH value for every locations are different from value of 5.90 until 7.23. Location 5 shows a highest pH value which is 7.23. The value is still in normal condition of water as the neutral water value is 7. At location 16, there are numerous outliers. Since the utilization of a canoe to deploy the system at location 16, the water seems to be agitated. This may be the reason for the outliers. The average value of pH for all locations is 6.97. Figure 6 shows a map with its data collection point colored with the mean pH value of the location. The arrow shows the increase acidity of the water. Referring to Figure 6, location L5, L9 and L15 shows almost neutral water. From location L5 to L3, the acidity increased (as pH value decrease, acidity increased). This is similar from location L9 to L16, L9 to L12 and L15 to L3. Evidently, location L3 shows a higher acidity level compared to other locations. The center of the lake shows midpoint between the highest and lowest pH value of the whole lake. Figure 5. Acidity boxplot Figure 6. Acidity map

The temperature sensor on the system only acquires surface temperature. The temperature values for all locations are varied from 26.0˚C-33.9˚C. Location L9, L10, L13 and L14 exhibit lots of outliers. These outliers may be due to water is agitated and temperature variation from the effect of wind. Near these locations, there are no obstacles to be found. The average value of temperature for all locations is 32.67˚C. Figure 7. Temperature boxplot Figure 8 shows a map with its data collection point colored with the mean temperature value of the location. The arrow shows the decreasing temperature of the water. Referring to Figure 8, location L4 has the highest value and the temperature decrease as the location increases and is shown by the anticlockwise arrow. The temperature also decreases as the location decreases from L4. Temperature reading at location L1, L13, L14 and L15 apparently has no distinct relationship with the other locations. The center of the lake shows midpoint between the highest and lowest temperature value of the whole lake. Figure 8. Temperature map

Light intensity Figure 9 shows the boxplot graph of light intensity for every 16 locations. The light intensity measured here is the light from the LED when it hits the light dependent resistor (LDR). Outside light is barred by the 3D printed casing. This method is used to measure the turbidity of the water. The higher the Lux measured by the LDR, the lower the turbidity. The average value of light intensity for all locations is 1340.32 lux. The value is varied from 438.13 lux until 4343.05 lux. Location 3, 4, 9, 10 and 11 shows the highest intensity of water which means the water at that location is clear. A lot of outliers can be seen at location L4, L9, L11 and L16. This shows that at that particular location, random agitation occurred. The random agitation may be due to the presence of aquatic life swimming across that area. Figure 10 shows a map with its data collection point colored with the mean lux value of the location. The arrow shows the increasing light intensity of the water. Referring to Figure 10, location L2, L8, L13, L14 and L15 has a light intensity value less than 1000 lux. This shows that, this area has high turbidity. Observation at this location shows that numerous fish has been sited. Apparently this location is famous among the campus citizen for fish feeding. The highest value iand the temperature decrease as the location increases and is shown by the anticlockwise arrow. The temperature also decreases as the location decreases from L4. Temperature reading at location L1, L13, L14 and L15 apparently has no distinct relationship with the other locations. The center of the lake shows mid-point between the highest and lowest temperature value of the whole lake. Figure 9. Light intensity boxplot Figure 10. Light intensity map

X-Y acceleration Figure 10 and 11 shows x and y-axis acceleration respectively for every 16 locations. The data is collected with the x-axis accelerometer is pointed North and y-axis accelerometer is pointed East. With the aid of GPS, the use of IMU for collecting x and y-axis acceleration data is for monitoring water movement. Referring to Figure 10, the value of x-axis is varied from -9.7 m/s2 to 11 m/s2 . The wave and wind factor influenced the reading. Location L14, L15 and L16 shows the presence of outliers which is exceed to the lower limit and upper limit for box-plot. Large range of acceleration can be seen at location L16 which is situated in the middle of the lake. This may be due to excessive water agitation due to the rocking canoe. Referring to Figure 11, the minimum and maximum y-axis acceleration for all locations is from-8.8 m/s2 to 4.5 m/s2 . Location L6 till L12 seems to be stagnant whereas location L16 shows large variation in acceleration. Similar to x-axis acceleration, the y-axis acceleration at location L16 may be due to excessive water agitation by rocking canoe. This can be resolved if the system where to be deployed and left until the rocking water has subdued before the data is collected. Both x and y-axis mean acceleration data is plotted on the acceleration map and can be seen in Figure 13. Referring to Figure 13, the location which is near the bank has almost the same mean data whereas the highest mean acceleration data can be seen at the middle of the lake. The location of the testing may not be suitable for collecting acceleration data since all location is near the bank. Figure 11. X-axis acceleration boxplot Figure 12. Y-axis acceleration boxplot

CONCLUSION The development of IoT based water quality catchment monitoring system has successfully collected data continuously in terms of acidity, temperature, light intensity, location and acceleration. All data has been plotted on the site map and it is evident that all data correlation between all locations can be clearly seen. X-Y axis acceleration data need to be processed further for it to be useful. The analysis data could be used to predict the pollution sources in the water by implementing prediction algorithm which will be done next in this research which will be discussed in future paper. The system is successfully developed but there is room for improvement.
