Deployed a 10 sensor network in a village

Using GreenSense V2.0 and Yuktix Solar-powered gateway, we deployed a network on 10 sensors in a village in AP, India. These GreenSense nodes are battery-powered optimized nodes with Soil moisture, air temperature, and air humidity sensors. Data is pushed every 10 minutes from these nodes to a central gateway which is then pushed to Yuktix cloud and shared with the user using the GreenSense dashboard. Analyzed and filter data is then converted into actionable data ( weather prediction, disease prediction ) and provided to the user which in our current deployment was an NGO who work closely with farmers and provide curated advisories to them.

    Very nice! Can you give me an idea of the cost of the solar-powered weather station? I plan to add monitoring from such components to http://edible.estate.

      For the yard, I think adding Temperature, Humidity and Soil moisture would be better both feature-wise and cost-wise. If you need any help, please feel free to reach out. We can provide the REST API which you can use to integrate data to your dashboard.
      Meanwhile interesting concept. I think eden at some point of time was also working on the gardening space, not sure what they are doing now.

    Awesome! Any plans on adding sensors or more cities?

      We are currently focusing on Agriculture. We have a product for #Smart cities - Yuktix OAQMS ( Outdoor Air Quality Monitoring Station ) with 10 sensor variant.

      Hi, you will need only one sensor node with Temperature, Humidity, Rainfall, Pressure and soil moisture sensor.
      These sensors collect real-time data from the field, use the same data to correct the weather prediction, provide disease prediction. Soil moisture data can be used for providing an irrigation schedule. As a part of the GreenSense dashboard, we also provide NDVI imaging, but for 5-acre land, it might not work.
