Design and Development of a Ship Fuel Tank Volume Height Monitoring System Using the JSN-SR04T Sensor Based on IoT Telegram Bots with Solar Panel Energy.Technological developments are getting faster and more advanced in this genera-tion.This can be utilized to create technology that is very widely used, namely technology in the field of electronics, by making tools for monitoring the height of fuel oil volume in ship tanks.Seafarers and the shipping industry in modern times like this can be said to need a LoT sounding meter monitoring tool because many ships in the shipping industry still use manual sounding meters, which can be detrimental to companies due to a lack of this problem.The author wants to create a tool that can provide monitoring information on ship fuel levels directly and can be controlled remotely for efficiency in working time.Sounding is an ac-tivity to measure the depth of large tanks that are difficult to reach.From this problem, the author wants to create a tool that can provide ultrasonic sensors on ship fuel levels directly and can be controlled remotely.The design of this tool is to use an underwater distance sensor with an ultrasonic sensor, which is used to determine the condition of oil parameters in the ship's fuel tank.This sensor is a sensor that functions to detect the oil level at a certain point for the output comod-ule, namely using the LCD as the output display.For data processing, a micro-controller component is used, namely the Node MCU board or ESP 8266 mod-ule.This design utilizes Internet of Things technology via the Telegram applica-tion on a smartphone, making it easier for users to find out the condition of the oil level in the ship's tank remotely via an Internet connection.In the process of providing complete information, namely when the oil level increases or decreases, the sensor will detect the distance or height of the oil parameters in the tank and send a notification via telegram that the oil or fuel is at a certain level.This tool will reset to the initial settings if the power input turns off.
