Blockchain-based Internet of Thing for Smart River Monitoring System

Abstract

The river plays an important role in the source of water in Malaysia as it is a part of the water cycle while acting as a drainage channel for surface water. One of the major threats to its sustainability is water pollution. The conventional methods for monitoring the water quality in the river are manual and continuous monitoring that will be costly and less efficient. Hence, this paper proposes the Internet of Things (IoT) as a promising technique that can provide real-time monitoring and enhances the efficiency of data collection. To make the data secure and trustworthy, blockchain technology will be used as a platform for all the data transaction in real time. The proposed system will provide a better solution to monitor the quality of the river and for the user to interact, retrieve and analyse real and historical data.

Blockchain Technology in Malaysian Context: Bibliometric Analysis and Systematic Review

“…In [83], authors proposed a BCT model to address the issue of a new traffic offence punishment point regulation. In [84], authors proposed a BCT-IoT system to provide a superior solution for monitoring river quality and allowing users to interact, retrieve, and analyze actual and historical data. 2) Domains/sectors BCT has been intensively researched in Malaysia across several domains/sectors.…”
