Many homes in the country of Peru, especially those located in unofficial settlements, are not connected to public service networks, and in the case of residential water, require tanker truck delivery. However, this water has often been contaminated from the upstream storage, conveyance and delivery systems that provide it, and thus will not comply with government water quality standards, ultimately compromising the health of the people who rely on it. While the topic of quality monitoring in traditional water networks has been studied, research has not focused on water quality control in under-developed and under-served unofficial settlements. This study introduces an IoT architecture and web-based system for real-Time monitoring of the key water quality parameters to help municipalities and other government entities to act early when large volumes of low-quality water are detected. The system proposed was implemented across five layers: capture, communication, processing, storage and presentation. Two experiments were conducted in a residential home with real time measurement of temperature, turbidity, TDS y pH. When comparing the results of both experiments, the pH parameter had a better precision with a 2% error rate. In addition, the survey results showed that the experts agree with the proposal.Type
