Meteorology
To be able to provide reliable weather forecasts and early warnings a highly dense network of weathers stations and sensors is necessary. They provide end-to-end climatic information from temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, windspeed- and direction, barometric pressure or also global radiation sensors.
With the use of the Metrilog T707 communication device all parameters from different sensors or weather stations are collected and automatically and very cost efficient sent to the central Metrilog M2M Gateway where they are available in a uniform data format. Data collection as well as transmission intervals can be freely configured as well as the automated data retrieval from the gateway to the end-user site.
Irrigation management
Economically and efficient handling of water resources leads to reduced production cost and increased profitability as well as enhanced quality of irrigated crop.
By the use of soil moisture sensors and/or weather stations in combination with the Metrilog communication devices users are able to permanently monitor soil conditions and thus avoid over- or under irrigation.
At the same time remote control of the irrigation system can be done through the use of the Metrilog T707 device. Automated irrigation scheduling is easily possible with „Instruments“ (link zu Instruments) a tool provided by Metrilog free of charge.
Road Weather Information
There is an increased demand for so called „road weather stations“ to be seen over the last years. Those are used for accurate prediction of weather conditioned traffic blocks and accidents as well as for reduction of costly inspection tours. They deliver valuable information for road safety especially during wintertime or during exceptional weather conditions like heavy rain, hail or wind.
Such a road weather station usually consists of temperature humidity, precipitation and wind-sensors as well as in addition sensors for road surface temperature, road surface condition, visibility or even snow depth.
With the Metrilog T707 all parameters are collected at the same time and sent to the M2M Gateway in pre-defined intervals. On the gateway the data are stored and automatically retrieved by qualified solution partners for analysis and pre-warnings.
For all applications monthly service and communication fees are calculated as flat rates (link zu Services), no additional cost will occur independently in which country or application the devices are installed.
Your benefits:
- Fater response times due to continuous monitoring
- Cost reduction through efficient management of resources
- Higher precision in scheduling
- Reliable early warning
