  2. Rain sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain_sensor

    Rain sensor on the windshield of a car. A rain sensor or rain switch is a switching device activated by rainfall. There are two main applications for rain sensors. The first is a water conservation device connected to an automatic irrigation system that causes the system to shut down in the event of rainfall.

  3. Micro-irrigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro-irrigation

    An irrigation controller is used with automatic systems and may be needed for back flushing the filter or sand separator. Since water conservation is a main reason for choosing micro-irrigation systems, soil moisture sensors, rain shutoff sensors and sometimes even weather stations may be installed to further reduce consumption.

  4. Leaf sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaf_sensor

    Precision irrigation monitoring using the SG-1000 leaf sensor and commercial data loggers for irrigation control has been achieved in recent years. [12] Researchers have found a direct correlation between leaf thickness and Relative Water Content (RWC) of plant leaves using the SG-1000 Leaf Sensor under field conditions.

  5. Present weather sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Present_weather_sensor

    The present weather sensor (PWS) is a component of an automatic weather station that detects the presence of hydrometeors and determines their type (rain, snow, drizzle, etc.) and intensity. It works on a principle similar to a bistatic radar , noting the passage of droplets, or flakes, between a transmitter and a sensor.

  6. Irrigation sprinkler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irrigation_sprinkler

    An irrigation sprinkler (also known as a water sprinkler or simply a sprinkler) is a device used to irrigate (water) agricultural crops, lawns, landscapes, golf courses, and other areas. They are also used for cooling and for the control of airborne dust.

  7. Automatic weather station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_weather_station

    Present weather sensor and/or visibility sensor; Rain gauge for measuring liquid-equivalent precipitation; Ultrasonic snow depth sensor for measuring depth of snow; Pyranometer for measuring solar radiation; Unlike manual weather stations, automated airport weather stations cannot report the class and amount of clouds.
