Remote Monitoring

During bushfire emergencies in radio blackspots, temporary unmanned radio repeaters are set up by the SES usually on hilltops. These are often powered by generators, with backup batteries and solar. Currently there is no means to monitor when the primary power source goes down and signal an alert, resulting in the possibility of radio communication failure.

There is a requirement therefore to be able to identify a power reduction reading various sensors and to be able to send an alert either by an LTE connection (if available) or via the radio itself.

Project Editor's Note: The project will likely involve code interfacing with devices, most likely via an Arduino, so any teams interested in this project should make sure you have experience with low-level coding.
