A real-time digital twin dashboard for monitoring underground drainage infrastructure using IoT (Arduino-based) sensors.
This system visualizes live drainage sensor data across cities like Harare, Bulawayo, and Mutare. It demonstrates how modern technology can be used to monitor and manage urban infrastructure.
**Key Features:**
- **Full-screen GIS Dashboard** - Dark-themed professional interface with Mapbox integration
- **Real-time Sensor Monitoring** - 50+ virtual sensors with live water level updates
- **Animated Status Indicators** - Green (normal), Yellow (warning), Red (critical) with smooth CSS animations
- **Live Statistics HUD** - Total drains, active blockages, maintenance pending counts
- **Event Ticker** - Auto-updating feed showing timestamped sensor alerts
- **City Selector** - Switch between Harare, Bulawayo, and Mutare
- **Detailed Analytics Panel** - Click any sensor to see water level gauge, health score, historical chart, and overflow predictions
- **Dispatch System** - UI for dispatching maintenance crews
**Technical Stack:**
- Django backend with REST API endpoints
- Mapbox GL JS for interactive mapping
- Chart.js for data visualization
- Real-time simulation engine with polling
- Responsive dark theme UI
**Educational Value:**
This project teaches students about:
- IoT sensor networks and data collection
- Real-time data visualization
- GIS mapping and geospatial data
- Urban infrastructure management
