In collaboration with UQ Property and Facilities, UQ SmartCampus is currently developing a smart device to monitor the water consumption for the irrigation of all sports fields on the St Lucia campus. Data will be transmitted wirelessly to a central database from which results will be available in real-time to maintenance staff via a web-app for optimisation purposes.
This project is being undertaken by UQ ITEE student Mitchell Tucker under the supervision of Dr Alex Pudmenzky.
