    • Rooftop and Balcony Systems: Manage irrigation for green roofs, vertical gardens, and urban agriculture.
    • Public Vegetable Gardens: Supports the efficient and sustainable management of shared vegetable gardens within municipalities.

3. Primary Sector

Supports sustainable practices and resource management in agricultural and livestock areas.

• • • Smart Water Resource Management: Facilitates optimal irrigation and monitoring of water quality and consumption in agricultural and livestock areas, as well as municipal irrigation boreholes.
    • Cost Reduction: Contributes to reduced resource waste through automated irrigation systems.

4, Smart Communities

• • • Community Gardens and Shared Spaces: Enable community-driven water management with remote monitoring and control. Foster sustainability and engagement through data-driven decision-making.
    • Sustainable Practices: Promotes sustainable water use within communities by regulating irrigation based on environmental conditions.

Our Smart Irrigation systems integrate seamlessly to provide intelligent water management:

• Sensor Deployment: Soil moisture sensors and precipitation sensors are strategically deployed in the field, connected to the FINoT Irrigation Controller.
• Controller Integration: The FINoT Irrigation Controller connects wirelessly via NB-IoT or a local gateway, optionally linking with FINoT Agri Microclimate and/or Weather Stations.
• Data-Driven Decisions: Real-time data from sensors and weather stations informs the controller, which can autonomously adjust irrigation cycles based on predefined rules, soil moisture levels, rainfall, or evapotranspiration calculations.
• Remote Management: Users can remotely administer irrigation procedures and manage settings through the FINoT Platform and FINoT Sense application.
• Resource Optimization: By intelligently adjusting water delivery, the system reduces water consumption and associated energy costs, while maintaining optimal plant health.

• FINoT Irrigation Controller: An 8-station (expandable to 16) DIN-rail mounted controller for 24V AC solenoids. Itfeatures inputs for up to 4 soil moisture sensors, a precipitation sensor, and up to 4 pulse water flow meters(expandable to 12). It supports NB-IoT/6LoWPAN connectivity and is designed for power- autonomousoperation when combined with relevant power solutions.
