Abstract
The integration of cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies has significantly advanced environmental monitoring, yet its application in critical public health domain such as mosquito surveillance, remains limited. This paper introduces an innovation solution, the Mosquito IoT Responsive Monitoring System (MIRMS), which boosts mosquito surveillance by employing real-time monitoring of key environmental variables critical for mosquito breeding. By integrating a combination of weather and water sensors with cloud technology, it provides continuous and precise monitoring, moving beyond traditional portable multiparameter meter methods. However, implementing such systems in real-world environments poses challenges, particularly in system design and testing across diverse field settings and scenarios. We describe the stages of design, development, and practical use of MIRMS, highlighting the selection criteria that led to the hardware and software architecture design. We also demonstrate how the system's design has evolved in response to the challenges encountered during realworld deployment, contrasting these experiences with controlled settings. This study validates MIRMS as a robust mosquito surveillance tool that not only improves the data collection process but also supports real-time decision-making and efficient resource management, providing key lessons for future IoT deployments in public health.
