An information system for quality monitoring and loss indication in grain stores using data from IoT sensors and other mechanisms

Grain storage is one of the most important steps in the agricultural production chain, as it is responsible for maintaining the physical-biological properties of the grains and, consequently, the quality of the stored products. Grain storage facilities (UAG) in the state of Parana generally do not have automated mechanisms to monitor environmental conditions, nor do they have appropriate solutions for the use of advanced Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. In this paper, we report the development of an information system that allows operators and managers to monitor in real-time the environmental data of the UAG collected by different sensors, which enables the monitoring of grains and the indication of quality losses during harvest.
