Dams play a very important role to hold and conserve water for optimal usage based on seasonal needs. Water Management plays a very important role in mitigating the current issues of water distribution and utilization. As there are lot of hazards related with the existence of the dams, it has become a necessity to develop a proper monitoring system regarding the opening of the dam gate to retain a safe water level in dams. Exploring usage of Embedded System for improving the safe utilization of dams, water flow and prevention of dam gate corrosion. This project intends to use microcontroller for monitoring and controlling the water distribution management by usage of various sensors, control valves, automatically & proactively manage outflow during crisis by using statistical data of the environment. This project report describes the design and construction of Automatic Dam Gates Opening and Flood monitoring system using a water level detector and rain drop sensor. The system is capable of continuously monitoring the water level in the reservoir, moisture in the catchment area and opens or close the dam gates based on the conditions in the environment. Additionally, it gives early warning about the flood conditions. Moreover, raindrop sensors detect precipitation intensity, aiding in the assessment of flood risk and the implementation of timely interventions. The system is made up of simple components, including an ESP8266, a water level detector, moisture sensor and a raindrop sensor. The servo motors are used for opening and closing of the gates. To measure the water flow released from the reservoir, flow sensor is used near the gates. The ESP8266 is used as a controller to programmed the system components.
