Product Description
Intelligent Water Management for Urban Ecosystems
This Urban Green Infrastructure Manager is a smart irrigation and climate system designed for large-scale green roofs, living walls, and urban agriculture projects. It moves beyond simple timers by creating a self-regulating ecosystem that conserves municipal water, reduces urban heat island effect, and ensures plant vitality by responding to real-time weather, soil moisture, and plant stress data.
Data-Driven Ecology for Resilient Cities
The system integrates a network of wireless sensors measuring substrate moisture at multiple depths, ambient temperature, solar radiation, rainfall, and wind speed. This data feeds into a cloud-based evapotranspiration (ET) model that calculates the exact water loss from the planted system. The controller then dispenses only the precise amount of water needed, often using integrated rainwater or greywater harvesting sources first. A key innovation is its plant health algorithm, which can detect subtle moisture stress patterns and adjust irrigation to prevent drought stress before visible wilting occurs, promoting deeper root growth and long-term resilience.
Maximizing Environmental and Economic Benefits
By replacing guesswork with precision, the system typically achieves 40-60% water savings compared to conventional irrigation, directly lowering utility costs and strain on city drains. For building owners, it protects the roofing membrane by preventing overwatering and validates the building’s LEED or WELL certification credits related to water efficiency and heat island reduction. The platform provides dashboard analytics showing water savings, stormwater retained, and estimated cooling benefits, transforming green infrastructure from a cost into a measurable, value-generating asset.
