The Remotely Controlled Urban Irrigation System aims to optimize the irrigation needs of city parks and green areas with modern technologies. This is a smart irrigation solution. Parks and green areas offer an escape point from the intensive pace of city life. However, appropriate watering, maintenance of these green spaces is time-consuming and difficult using traditional methods. It is at this point that the Remotely Controlled Urban Irrigation System comes into operation. This system, an intelligent irrigation solution that incorporates modern technology, makes use of sensor data. It constantly monitors the current state of plants, soil and environmental conditions. This system aims to effectively manage the green tissue of cities through irrigation.

Importance and Characteristics of Remotely Controlled Urban Irrigation System

Effectively irrigating the green areas of cities can be a challenging task with traditional methods. They are smart solutions developed to overcome difficulties and manage greenery efficiently. These systems include technological features such as sensors, data transmission, cloud-based analysis and remotely control.

Remotely controlled urban irrigation systems continuously monitor environmental conditions using various sensors. The current state of plants, soils is determined using soil moisture sensors, temperature sensors, precipitation meters, and air pressure sensors. These sensors provide important data for determining the irrigation need and optimizing irrigation programs.

The data obtained from the sensors is transferred to a central database via wireless communication protocols or IoT technology. Communication protocols such as radio frequency (RF), Zigbee, LoRaWAN or 4G LTE enable the secure transfer of sensor data. This allows for the continual monitoring and regulation of green spaces in various places.

Remotely managed urban irrigation systems do detailed analysis by sending acquired data to cloud-based platforms. These platforms create irrigation programs that are tailored to the specific needs of each region. Furthermore, irrigation tactics will be optimized by incorporating meteorological data and considering future weather forecasts.

Irrigation System Problem

Like plants in houses, plants in large urban parks need constant care and adequate hydration. Watering a potted plant is easy. However, serious issues develop with irrigation in parks and gardens around the city. Especially in terms of operational costs and plant health. Due to the fact that plants grown in the city are subject to serious changes in the local microclimate, the humidity ratio must be correct. It is inefficient for workers to roam throughout the city inspecting, maintaining all green spaces. Irrigation systems eliminate these needs. It makes irrigation much faster and more efficient. To further increase the efficiency of this type of solution, the irrigation system is automated. It’s critical to note that such a system requires connections for all sensors, control equipment.

Irrigation System Solution

Sensors such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture, pressure, flow, meters and electric valves should be used to provide remotely irrigation system control in green areas. The ModProBus RTU-P RF product allows collecting sensor and valve information from parks and gardens by radio frequency. CloudIO Pro IoT Gateway, transmit this information to the Fast IoT Platform over a 4G LTE connection. The Fast IoT Platform knows the appropriate humidity level determined for each region and ensures that the electric valves work accordingly. Inadequate or excessive watering is avoided, and plant health and irrigation equipment are remotely monitored. The irrigation system may run automatically and be monitored and regulated in real time.
