Start Up Idea : Harvester for Extreme Events App


An app which by retrieving the local weather information can predict the potential of the area for harvesting specific crops.

The app can be connected to automatic weather monitoring systems for real-time retrieval of data. The parameters that will be monitored :

1)Temperature
2)Rainfall
3)Humidity
4)Soil Moisture

Among all these parameters Soil Moisture is the only parameter that needs to be monitored in real-time by an optical sensor connected to the App.

After a prediction is made based on the weather values, the same is compared with a threshold value which is predefined. 

The owner of the app can take a subscription fee or per-service fee against receiving the required data from the map.

Area of Application/Consumers: Cultivators, Urban Farmers

Selection of Optimal Quality Water for Specific Uses by ANN-MCDM based Auto-Selector

Project Idea : Selection of Optimal Quality Water for Specific Uses by ANN-MCDM based Auto-Selector Requirement : Knowledge of photo-sensors,Artifiicial Neural Network,Multi-Criteria Decision Making. Justification of the Study : The change in the climate pattern,pollution concentration in the air and water,ever growing demand and lastly the uncontrolled extraction of natural resources has induced a situation where the amount of water demanded,available and usable has noticeable level of difference.That is why day by day water is becoming scarce and consumers has to ensure proper measures for optimal utilization of the resource.An automatic selector which can seperate water based on its quality specific uses may help to control misuse of the resource. Brief Methodology : Relationship between water quality and its uses must be determined first.The MCDM techniques can be devised to decide about the quality of water for specific use.After correlation is determined some sensors ...

Selection of Compensatory Action for Renovation of Sacred Water bodies

New Research Idea :  Selection of Compensatory Action for Renovation of Sacred Water bodies by Analytical Hierarchy Process and Fuzzy Logic.(Water bodies near a sacred place is referred as Sacred Water-body).   Tools Used : AHP,Fuzzy Logic   Goal : To select a mitigation strategy for renovation of a sacred water-body   Usefulness/Justification :  The sacred water bodies are used mainly for disposal of various biological wastes generated from a sacred place. Also Many people take bath into the water body. That is why high BOD and COD in such water bodies often degrades quality of the water. Thus various mitigation strategies can be devised to restore the same. Now the strategies must be effective but not expensive. Keeping in view of this condition decision makers must take a decision to save such water bodies which are both pride of the people and savior of the environmental balance.
