SOIL COPILOT.

The soil copilot is part of a complete package, combining accurate soil moisture with intuitive web based software (IrriMAX Live). Irrigation management decisions can be made from anywhere at any time.

The Sentek Drill and Drop probe utilises an undisturbed installation method, ensuring we monitor the exact same soil structure as the surrounding field and not an area that has been disturbed, which could infiltrate water differently and effect rooting.

The soil copilot is built on our copilot hub platform, allowing upgrades with the addition of new sensors or even automating irrigation. The station is self powered via a solar panel and transmits data to the web via the mobile phone network.

Data can be viewed with IrriMAX Live in a range of near real-time graphs, gauges, lists and maps. Satellite (NDVI) and local weather data forecasts can be included to aid decision making. Tools are available for quick decision making but also detailed analysis for when time allows.
