Project Summary: IoT-Driven Washroom Monitoring and Analytics System

The IoT-based washroom monitoring and analytics system is a cutting-edge solution designed to enhance facility management through real-time insights into washroom usage. Built on the ThingsBoard platform and integrated with the ChirpStack network server, this system offers advanced monitoring, data visualization, and reporting across multiple washrooms within a facility. Key features include:

1. Real-Time Occupancy and Usage Monitoring:

• Dynamic Occupancy Tracking: Continuously monitors the number of individuals inside each washroom in real-time.
• Cubicle Status Visualization: Graphically displays the status of cubicles (vacant/occupied).
• Entry and Exit Counting: Tracks people entering and exiting the washroom, ensuring accurate occupancy data.
• Total People Inside: Provides real-time graph and time-series data showing the total number of people inside the washroom.

2. Comprehensive Time-Based Analytics:

• Predictive Wait Time Analytics: Predicts and analyzes wait times, particularly when cubicles are nearly fully occupied, presented with graphs and time-series data.
• Total Wait Time Calculation: Automatically calculates total wait times, helping identify peak usage and bottlenecks.

3. Occupancy and Cubicle Monitoring:

• Vacant and Occupied Cubicles: Tracks and visualizes vacant and occupied cubicles with accompanying graphs and time-series data tables.
• Occupied Cubicles and Total Visitors (24-Hours): Monitors the number of occupied cubicles and visitors over the last 24 hours, resetting daily at 5:30 AM.

4. Environmental and Condition Monitoring:

• Water Leakage Monitoring: Logs water leakage incidents with a time-series data table.
• Temperature and Humidity Monitoring: Tracks temperature and humidity levels, visualized through graphs and time-series data.
• Air Quality Monitoring: Measures ammonia and sulphide levels, calculates air quality based on user guidelines, and presents the data in graphs and time-series tables.

5. Advanced Dashboard and Visualization:

• Customizable Themes: Offers light and dark theme options for a personalized experience.
• Customizable Layouts for Mall Map and Washrooms: Supports dynamic layouts reflecting the facility’s physical map.
• Real-Time Display of Cubicle Status: Graphical interface showing real-time occupied and vacant cubicles.
• Widget for Alarms and Alerts: Provides a real-time display for alarms and alerts related to occupancy, air quality, or leakage.

6. Data Reporting and Downloads:

• Downloadable Data: Enables users to download up to 30 days of data in formats such as xls, xlsx, and csv.
• Dashboard and Graph Downloads: Supports exporting dashboards and graphs in pdf, png, jpeg, and json formats for offline reporting.

7. Device Monitoring and Access:

• Web and Mobile App Access: Full monitoring available via web and mobile apps for seamless device and data oversight.

8. Data-Driven Decision Making:

• Real-Time Data Visualization: Provides immediate insights for informed decision-making.
• Historical Data Analysis: Collects long-term data to guide future resource planning and facility design.
• Scalability and Flexibility: Easily scales to accommodate additional washrooms and devices as needed.

9. Operational Efficiency and User Experience:

• Improved User Satisfaction: Optimizes washroom usage and reduces wait times, enhancing the user experience.
• Enhanced Facility Management: Actionable insights enable proactive maintenance and greater operational efficiency.
• Multiple Admins and User Roles: Supports multiple administrators, sub-admins, users, and customers for flexible management.

10. Alerting and Notification System:

• Email and Web Alerts: Sends real-time notifications via email and web dashboard for updates on occupancy, air quality, leakage, and other key metrics.

11. Device and Network Management:

• Dedicated Network Server: Simplifies IoT device onboarding and network management with the ChirpStack network server.

12. Optimized Washroom Cubicle Maintenance:

• Maintenance Dashboard: Provides real-time insights to optimize cubicle maintenance and ensure operational readiness.
