Dams are typically constructed with a drain or similar mechanism to control water levels in a reservoir for normal maintenance or emergency purposes. By definition, a disaster is any event that causes great harm or damage, serious or sudden misfortune. Failures of the dam clearly fit this definition.
An automatic dam water level monitor and controller system. Our proposed project uses sensors to detect the water level and then opens the dam gate (motor used to demonstrate as dam gate) according to the water level. Our system uses multiple water level sensors (float sensors) for this purpose. The sensors are mounted on three different levels to check the water level and provide the signals accordingly. When the water reaches the first sensor, it is detected by it and visualized. When the water reaches the second sensor, it provides a signal to the microcontroller and opens the gate partially. As soon as the water level reaches the third sensor, it indicates the microcontroller and the microcontroller then signals the motor to operate, which is shown as opening the gate of the dam completely.
It can be understood in the following video:
