5G SENS based continuous monitoring of environmental measurements, such as:
- Air and soil temperature
- Soil moisture
- Air pressure
Solution
SMT100 is a world class soil moisture sensor with outstanding accuracy for demanding applications in science and precision agriculture. The sensor is connected to a 5G SENS based data logger with a RS485 interface.
Measurement intervals can be configured remotely. Additionally, GNSS-Position and a 3-D position sensor is available. Data logger provides a weatherproof, UV- and impact resistant, IP65 protected housing for different use cases.
Data is transferred very power efficient via low power wide area networks LTE-M or NB-IOT into the cloud. This allows more than 5000 measurements with six AA battery pack.
