1. Introduction

1.1 Purpose of the requirements document

This Software Requirements Specification (SRS) identifies the requirements for the SmartCitizen project. The purpose of the present document is to explain how we organize our project, the different steps of the conception and the project achievement.

1.2 Scope of the product

The purpose of this project is to monitor a city thanks to sensors spread in it and to visualize the data, sent by those sensors, on a map.

1.3 Definitions, acronyms and abbreviations

• MQTT (MQ Telemetry Transport) : It is a messaging protocols that can be used by a range of devices from small sensors, to mobile phones, embedded systems on vehicles, or laptops. It uses the publish-subscribe messaging pattern.
• Arduino : It is a open-source board with a microcontroller, intended to make the application of interactive objects or environments more accessible.
• MongoDB :A NoSQL cross-platform document-oriented database system. It uses a JSON-like structure (named BSON) instead of the traditional table-based system.
• Leaflet : A open-source JavaScript library for building web mapping applications.

2. General description

2.1 Product perspective

At first, the website will enable people to see data from sensors on a map. Then, a bit of statistics will be made in order to display zone in function of some parameters. Finally, the user will be able to take a picture with geolocalisation and post it on twitter, so that the picture is displayed on the web site.

2.2 Product functions

If a user want to send data from its own sensors to the web site, he will have to register in order to obtaining a key that will be required to setup the sensors.
The web site display the position of the sensors as well as the data they send to the web site. Zones are also displayed depending on those data.

2.3 User characteristics

A web browser with JavaScript enabled is needed. An access to Twitter is required if the user want to send pictures from Twitter.

3.Specific requirements, covering functional, non-functional and interface requirements

• document external interfaces,
• describe system functionality and performance
• specify logical database requirements,
• design constraints,
• emergent system properties and quality characteristics.
