The DENORI project focuses on reducing water loss in agricultural irrigation systems by implementing IoT sensors and artificial intelligence algorithms to detect leaks early. These technologies will provide real-time alerts to farmers, allowing them to act immediately, reduce water waste, and use resources more efficiently. This system is especially beneficial in areas facing water scarcity, where every drop counts.
With DENORI, farmers can improve productivity while reducing operating costs, as the system reduces water and energy consumption and minimizes the need for labor to check for leaks. Furthermore, the reduction in water usage will allow farmers to meet sustainability standards, giving them an advantage in markets that favor environmentally responsible practices.
Integrating this smart technology into existing irrigation systems is simple, cost-effective, and scalable, making it accessible to farms of any size. In short, DENORI offers a clear advantage for agricultural professionals looking to modernize their practices, improve sustainability, and optimize water use, resulting in greater profitability and long-term viability.
The project will deploy IoT sensors in irrigation systems to monitor water flow, pressure, and soil moisture. These sensors will collect real-time data, which will be processed by artificial intelligence algorithms to detect leaks. Satellite images will also be used for remote monitoring.
The project includes the testing, validation, and improvement of these technologies, as well as the training of farmers and the dissemination of results to promote efficient and sustainable water use in agriculture.
The project aims to address the critical problem of water loss in agricultural irrigation systems due to undetected leaks. This challenge is particularly significant in regions facing water scarcity and rising operating costs.
By deploying IoT devices and artificial intelligence algorithms, the project will automatically detect and notify farmers of water leaks in real time, improving water efficiency, reducing costs, and increasing crop productivity, while contributing to environmental sustainability.
With DENORI, farmers can improve productivity while reducing operating costs, as the system reduces water and energy consumption and minimizes the need for labor to check for leaks.
