What is a system?
A system is a set of interacting or interdependent components forming an integrated whole or a set of elements (often called 'components' ) and relationships which are different from relationships of the set or its elements to other elements or sets.
Each element in the system is called “component”.Every system is having following components
1) Input2) Processor3) Transmitter4) Output

Observations & Conclusions
Robust covering should be provided.
Graphical data transmission such as MMS is not possible with Arduino, Arduino compatible cameras are not adequately available in the market.
Areas at which signal strength is less, power consumption by the system is more to send data as SMS. To overcome this problem one should go for the networks which are having high signal strength.
Ultrasonic sensor should not be installed near the bank, as water near the bank may not be stable at all the times.
Limitations
Range of ultrasonic sensor is 3 m only.
Ultrasonic sensor can not be used, if it is to be implemented in the stilling well because of the reason that sentry angle is 15 degrees only.
If flow is not smooth, measurement may not be accurate.
Future work
To install the device in the field, it is better to use solar energy.
To reduce the power consumption,use logical devices to activate the system only at required times and system should be idle for remaining.
Automation of the gates if device installed at the reservoirs, automation of the motors if the device installed in the farming fields.
Incorporate the exhaust fan in the device as heat sink, to protect the device from heat.
We wish to express our deep sense of gratitude from the bottom of our heart to our guide Dr.N.Sai Bhaskar Reddy, Coordinator, ClimaAdapt for his motivating discussions, overwhelming suggestions, ingenious encouragement and advice, invaluable supervision, exemplary guidance throughout this project.
We would like to extend our heartful thanks to Sri L.Narayana Reddy, Director General, WALAMTARI and Engineer-in-Chief, I & CAD Dept., for giving this great opportunity of taking intern at WALAMTARI.
We are immensely grateful to our Vice Chancellor Prof.R V Raja Kumar for his support in undertaking internship in I & CAD Department.
We are also thankful to Mr.Kiran, Data Processing Officer, Miss.A.Sravanthi, Water Manager and Mr.Pranith for their constant backing in all aspects of this project.
