近年來，受惠於物聯網 (Internet of Things) 的興起，帶動了許多個人、工廠、農業等應用需求。物聯網不僅僅是將裝置都連上網路，還可以幫助我們更快速的搜集數據與交換資料。有了大量的數據資料之後，人們便可以根據此發展出更具智慧、更方便的監控系統。
在台灣，農業方面的物聯網需求也有增加的趨勢，然而因為發展太過快速，目前市面上的物聯網平台都有他們各自的缺陷，包括只有數據顯示、無法控制或是支援的通訊協定太過單一等。目前並沒有一個功能齊全、提供資料收集、顯示、自動控制，且充滿智慧的平台。
在此篇論文中，我們設計並實作了一個針對 LoRaWAN、Wi-Fi 等無線通訊協定的物聯網平台，提供使用者的功能包括了基本的數據收集分類、資料的視覺化以及將農務日誌整合進我們的平台中。進階的功能有智慧回控，使用者可以自訂規則，當符合規則時系統會自動幫我們做決定，達到智慧控制的效果。更進一步的，我們規劃了專家系統，提供小農們盡皆為資深農民的可能性。使用者可以根據專家系統已經儲備的知識，來判斷自己的農務方式正確與否，提供進步的方向。使用者在使用本平台後，便可以快速建置一個充滿智慧的農場，與最新的科技連動。

In recent years, thanks to the rise of the Internet of Things, many personal, industrial, and agricultural applications have been driven. More than just connecting devices to the Internet, it also helps us to collect data and exchange information more quickly. The demand for IoT in agriculture has also increased in Taiwan. However, because of the rapid development, the IoT platforms on the market today have their own deficiencies, including users can only monitor data but not able to control, the lack of supporting in communication protocols and so on.
In this thesis, we designed and implemented an Internet of Things platform that supports wireless communication protocols such as LoRaWAN and Wi-Fi. We have provided data collection and classification, the visualization of data, and the integration of agricultural logs for users in our platform. Moreover, we introduce the automatic control system that enables the user to customize the rules to the controllers. When the rules are met, the system will automatically help us make decisions and achieve the effect of intelligent control. Further, we have planned an expert system that offers the possibility of small farmers to senior farmers. Users can judge the correctness of their agricultural methods according to the knowledge already stored in the expert system and provide direction for progress. After using the platform, users can quickly build an intelligent farm that links with the latest technology.
