## 1 Introduction  
Recently, innovations in information communication technology have been accelerating the convergence between different industries [1,2]. The convergence and integration of IT with agricultural technology is expected to be an area that could increase the added value and productivity of agriculture by applying the ubiquitous technology to the agricultural sector which is a primary industry [3,4]. To successfully construct such a u-agricultural environment, the development of essential ubiquitous technology optimized for agriculture such as sensor hardware, middleware platforms, routing protocols and application services for agricultural environments is needed. Examples of the convergence of ubiquitous technology with agriculture, which is a primary industry, on a trial basis exist, such as the use of sensor nodes in vine culture sites and applications of ubiquitous technology in livestock farming sites, and the technology has gradually begun to appear in other small areas like the increase of production and the improvement of quality at various agricultural sites [5-9]. An agricultural environment monitoring system provides environmental monitoring services and facility controlling services, and thus maintains the crop growing environment in an optimal status. This system also improves the convenience and productivity of users. However, existing agricultural monitoring systems are mostly applied and utilized in closed agricultural environments such as greenhouses, cattle sheds, _etc._, as it is difficult to apply agricultural monitoring systems in outdoors locations such as paddies, fields, orchards, _etc._ because of a lack of IT infrastructure. In addition, when users want to verify the monitored information in existing monitoring systems, the user must manually check the status through installed sensors or terminals installed in the agriculture facilities. In order to solve these problems, it is necessary to develop an agricultural environment monitoring system that can monitor environmental information and soil information in remote location and can be used in agricultural environments which lack infrastructure. This paper proposes an agricultural environment monitoring server system to monitor information on the outdoors by utilizing WSN (wireless sensor network) technology, which is one of such ubiquitous technologies. If the proposed agricultural environment monitoring server system is applied to an agricultural environment, environmental and soil information could be monitored even at a remote site, and it is expected that this would contribute to increased crop yields and the improvement of quality in the agricultural field by supporting producers' decision making about crop production through the analysis on the collected information. The agricultural environment monitoring server system proposed in this paper collects environmental information such as luminance, temperature, humidity, wind direction, wind speed, EC, pH, CO\({}_{2}\)_etc._ which affect growth of crops and soil information through the WSN environmental sensors and soil sensors installed outdoors, collects image information on the outdoors and location information on the position where the server system is installed through CCTVs and GPS modules, and the information is converted into a database through the agricultural environment monitoring server to provide suitable information to producers through to a variety of services. In addition, the server system is set up to use power supplied through solar cells so that it could be used in agricultural environments with insufficient power infrastructure. This paper is organized as follows.
