Turf grass water management can be handled automatically with Campbell Scientific’s T107 T. Weather Stations and Toro’s Central Irrigation and Control System.
The T107 T Weather automatically monitors meteorological conditions that affect turf grass water consumption. This information is used by the Central Irrigation System to analyze current irrigation requirements. The weather station continuously monitors solar radiation, air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and rainfall. These parameters (excluding wind direction) are inputs for a modified Penman equation that calculates evapotranspiration (ETo).
