In our day-to-day life we hear a lot of news about fishermen, once out on the sea the fishermen are subjected to various oceanographic and climatic conditions. The fishermen are unable to get the help from the government during emergency situations. This project gives them a solution to get rid of those problems. The Raspberry pi model 3B, DHT22 (temperature and humidity) and BMP180 (pressure) are the sensors connected, to indicate the formation of cyclone. Neo 7m GPS module is interfaced to monitor the location of the boat all the time. It compares the current data with the reference data fed within the processor, in case of any deviation the buzzer will indicate that they have crossed out Nation’s border. We have also fed the location of the islands in the particular zone, so that they can land safely when the cyclone is severe. We can also use a series of transmitters and receivers to transfer the message from the land mass or the coastal guards to the fishermen in the boat. In future, ISRO is planning to make marine communication successful with the help of launching a satellite. This helps to communicate their nearby land location to the rescue team or their family members.
