Project Description: Kootenai Water District 1 is a rural water district in North Idaho supplying residents around the CDA lake drive area. My responsibilities for this project primarily included designing and developing the python based MQTT software that keeps the whole plant operational. This includes gathering data from the Allen-Bradley PLCs and sending that to other stations where than it is written to that respective PLC. Currently there are 4 stations communicating via MQTT with the plan being to soon add a fifth.
