Abstract:

A new developing technology, the internet of things, allows us to capture information from multiple devices like sensors, buildings, and homes. This information is stored in the Cloud and can be used in order to improve a service or enhance decision making. Internet of Things supports a Smart City vision, enhance the quality of public services and the life of its habitants. Smart Farming plays an important role and represents an essential component in Smart Cities. Moreover, the need of decreasing the waste of water has opened new research directions in finding solutions that help in saving water. In this paper, it has been proposed a solution for the intelligent irrigation of any type of crop, taking into account new technologies such as Internet of Things in order to improve irrigation systems. In order to show the feasibility of this proposed, an application of this solution has been presented.
