Pain Points
Agriculture, horticulture, and environmental science programs struggled to achieve reliable, data-driven soil monitoring.
 
 Theory vs. Field Application Gap
Growers & students measured soil moisture & salinity at points but lacked tools for continuous, scalable field monitoring.
 
 Manual & Infrequent Sampling
Conventional soil probes needed frequent visits and missed short-term changes after rainfall or irrigation.
 
 Limited IoT Integration
Existing systems lacked easy LoRaWAN® & cloud integration, limiting access for small farms and educational use.
Our Offerings
Deployed smart soil sensors for real-time monitoring, efficient irrigation, and IoT-driven research.
 
 Field Deployment Flexibility
SE02-LB sensors at multiple depths capture accurate soil moisture & salinity data across diverse environments.
 
 Dual Parameter Monitoring
Configured to track soil moisture & EC together, providing insights on water availability and soil health.
 
 Long-Range LoRaWAN® Data Transmission
Used LoRaWAN® to send sensor data kilometers to gateways, removing the need for cellular or wired infrastructure.
 
 Cloud-Based Visualization & Alerts
Decoded payloads are sent to ChirpStack, TTN, or private dashboards for trend analysis, irrigation scheduling & anomaly detection.

 
  
  
 Outcomes
 
 Precision Irrigation
