Freighter Fuel Level detection and Overload Alarming System with Safety Notification via GSM

Abstract

Freighter is a cardinal part for the transport, especially for the inland, inshore and seaward navigation system. It provides a better alternative to other modes of transport by being energy efficient and reliable since it can carry large number of people and goods at the same time. Especially for the lower land and populated countries like Bangladesh, India, Maldives, Indonesia etc; it becomes an inevitable part for the transport system. By carrying goods inside and outside the country it is contributing a lot to the economy. So it is a major concern to make the freighter based transportation system more safe and reliable. But some hazardous incidents in recent years have instigated the researcher to make the system more reliable. In a report it has been seen that only in Bangladesh around 3869 people have been died since 1976 by water vessel hazard and in US around 651 people have been died in the year 2012. A case study reveals that about 80 per cent of the accidents occurring at water body were the result of human errors.
