One of US farms has relied on manual processes to control their sophisticated irrigation systems. Field workers would make notes on paper logs about rainfall, soil moisture levels, and other metrics to determine when and how much to water different plots, which was ineffective. So they approached us to develop custom irrigation software. After gathering requirements we start designing a database schema to store critical irrigation data like watering schedules, soil sensors, rainfall data, crops planted, and field boundaries. Next, we developed a web application with user-friendly interfaces for farm managers, field supervisors, and irrigation technicians. The management dashboard gives a real-time overview of water usage, soil moisture levels, and alerts. Field workers use mobile apps to input readings from sensors scattered throughout the farms. The system also integrates with the client's existing sensors, weather data sources, and water pumping infrastructure. Since going live a few months ago, the client has realized significant efficiencies in their workflows from the new irrigation management system.
