The program for the management of the water and soil (PROMAS) is a research department of the University of Cuenca. It focuses on the monitoring and conservation of the water sources and natural resources. Among others, such program mainly requires the monitoring of several variables by means of a set of hydro-meteorological stations. From its beginning, the program has deployed around 130 stations in an extensive geographic area of interest, ranging from the Cajas sector in the province of Azuay to the province of Cañar. Currently, the meteorological stations stores the variables of interest in their internal memory. Then, the analysis of the collected data requires the physical displacement of the Promas staff to the different sites. Due to the fact that most of the remote sites are of difficult access, the personal obtain the information with a periodicity of around 30 and 45 days. In this context, this paper describes the work on progress whose main objective is to provide to the meteorological stations with the wireless transmission capacity of the data collected by the sensors to the Promas data center in real time.
