thrive. As more people move from rural to urban areas, cities are rapidly expanding in population. We provide a technique based on IoT to satisfy the demands for monitoring water quality and providing water (Internet of Things). In this study, we demonstrate a method for collecting rainwater in rural areas as well as an Internet of Things model which is used for monitoring water quality and level. The collected data via sensors are made available for real-time viewing on a website. The proposed system contains an Arduino as the main controller along with a number of sensors used are water level sensor, pH sensor, and water flow .A microcontroller processes the data it receives from the sensors and then uses a wireless connection module to send it to the cloud.
1.2 Problem Statement Extreme shortage of water in the summertime is one of the biggest issues in hilly locations. In the summer, there is sometimes a severe water scarcity in higher-elevation areas where there has been a recent significant growth in population. Most of the time, natural subterranean water systems provide water supplies. The absorption of water into the ground during the rainy season has decreased dramatically over time due to rising urbanization, which has led to a rise in concrete surfaces. As a result, the population is dependent on the natural resources, which frequently run out. In these locations, when water is pumped from lower areas near a river, lake, etc., large water tanks are frequently erected. The rocky terrain and limits on blasting, etc. make water collection in these locations a challenging undertaking. Through this hackathon, students may provide a solution to the water problem.

1. INTRODUCTION Urbanization, development, and population growth all contribute to the degradation and contamination of drinkable water. Therefore, more effective methods for monitoring water purity are required. Physical testing was required to determine the water's cleanliness. Such methods require more effort and cannot be regarded as effective. By concentrating on the aforementioned problems, this model would create a cost cutting system which will provide a realtime monitoring of water quality in an Internet of Things environment.

1.1 Internet of Things (IoT) IOT facilitates the interconnection of various devices such as cell phones, Televisions, PC’s, sensors, and actuators to the Internet. This connectivity enables novel modes of communication between people and objects, as well as between objects themselves. In the last few years, IoT construction has advanced considerably. A growing number of gadgets are being linked to the internet every day. Machine-to-machine transmission costs on mobile networks are typically lower than those on stationary networks. Now, individuals are able to connect to the internet anytime and wherever they like. The Internet of Things is being used by a
