SVPI Airport Implements Smart Irrigation for Water Conservation
Imagine the airport has a smart watering system for its plants, like a robot that knows exactly how much water each plant needs!
This new system uses the weather and special sensors in the soil to make sure it only waters when necessary.
It’s like having a personal gardener that never wastes a drop!
The system helps save a lot of water, about as much as 132,000 people use in a day.
The airport staff can also control the system from their phones or computers.
SVPI Airport introduced a smart irrigation system.
The system is cloud-based and uses weather and soil sensors.
It covers 17 acres of green space.
The new system is expected to save 17.85 million liters of water annually.
The system allows remote operation and adjusts watering schedules automatically.
