Weather- or Sensor-Based Irrigation Control Technologies
Weather- or sensor-based irrigation control technology uses local
weather and landscape conditions to tailor irrigation schedules
to actual conditions on the site or historical weather data. Instead
of irrigating according to a preset schedule, advanced irrigation
controllers allow irrigation to more closely match the water requirements
of plants. These new control technologies offer significant potential
to improve irrigation practices in homes, businesses, parks, and
schools across the United States. WaterSense plans to label weather-based
irrigation controllers and soil moisture sensors.
