Abstract: An apparatus for real-time monitoring of groundwater level and soil moisture of a gully head landfill area includes: a groundwater observation well set up in a monitoring area; a drop-in liquid level transmitter placed in the groundwater observation well and configured to sense a change of groundwater level and transmit data to an environmental supervision cloud platform (ESCP) through a data collection module; a plurality of soil moisture transmitters arranged in layers on a wall of the groundwater observation well and configured to sense soil moisture; a data collection module configured to receive data from the drop-in liquid level transmitter and transmit the collected signal to an ESCP; and an environmental monitoring host configured to receive data from the soil moisture transmitters and transmit the data to an environmental monitoring cloud platform (EMCP). A user can view real-time data by remotely logging in to the ESCP and EMCP.
