The facility manager informs the facility manager in real time, and the facility manager checks the status of the facility and directly controls the control means by using smart devices to cope with the situation of the seaweed container farm facility. It can be done easily.

Low power long-distance communication used in mobile communication network, wired / wireless internet or IoT, installed in the seaweed container farm facility to measure the environment such as sea water temperature, nutrition status, illuminance, salt, dissolved oxygen, dissolved nitrogen, etc. By applying low power wide area (LPWA) technology or LTE-MTC (Machine Type Communication) communication network, it is possible to analyze algae container farm facilities by analyzing environmental measurement information, environmental observation information, and facility control information transmitted by container farm facilities. It is possible to control and control the environment of the seaweed container farm facility and the seawater temperature controller remotely from the outside, so that the water quality purified and discharged from the container farm facility is strictly managed. An environmental control system and a method thereof.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an evolution of the concept of the Machine to Machine (M2M) of device-to-period communication, which is based on the connections between objects of people and people, and is based on data and analysis collected from various sensors. The concept of providing new services.

Recently, small / low specification / low power devices and IoT to accommodate them are spreading, and low power wide area (LPWA) networks used for the IoT mainly use 900HHz band, LTE-M technology or LoRa ( IoT-specific network technologies, such as Long-Range Sub-Ghz Modules), which are specialized for long- and medium-range wireless communications, are commercially available.

The increase in land aquaculture in Korea has favorable regional environmental conditions for aquaculture in the sea.

It is possible to artificially control the temperature by using underground seawater with an average of 16 ~ 18 ℃℃, and to grow and produce year round. It is located in the open sea, it can maintain stable water quality, there is no red tide, and there are relatively few sources of natural pollution. Forms used are possible.

However, due to the increase in land farms, the temperature of coastal fisheries is accelerated by discharged water, and conventional land farms are farming fish based on the farmer's empirical knowledge or skills. Although it is being used, it is difficult for the facility manager to monitor the warning lights at all times to identify the abnormality, and it is difficult to deal with the problem quickly, and the facility manager has to check the place where the error occurs.

In addition, there is a case where the land farm and the alarm buzzer are used, but it can be installed when the facility manager's house is short distance, but in the long distance, the alarm buzzer is used because it is difficult to maintain due to the construction and failure of the dedicated line. There are very limited places to do this, and only the limited ones have to check for abnormalities, so there are always various operational problems.

Therefore, since the farming environment of the land farm is made based on the farmer's empirical knowledge or skills, there is a difference in the level of environmental management for each land farm, which leads to the growth and production of the farmed farm, and cope with the dangerous situation rapidly. There is a problem that the productivity and quality is lowered, and the product is less reliable due to failure.
