Configuration programme for automatic soil moisture monitoring stations

An automatic soil moisture monitoring station generally consists of the following components:

Soil moisture sensor: It is the core component of the monitoring station and is used to detect soil moisture content and temperature. The sensors are usually installed at different depths of the soil layer in order to obtain more accurate soil moisture and temperature data.

Data Collector: It is responsible for receiving data from the soil moisture sensors and storing them. The storage capacity of the data collector is usually large and can save huge amount of data for a long period of time.

Communication Module: It is responsible for transmitting data to the computer or cloud platform. The communication module is generally composed of wireless and wired communication methods to ensure accurate data transmission.

Data processing software: process and analyse the information from sensors, data collectors and so on. The software can display, store and analyse the data in real time to help users better understand the state of the soil.

Depending on the application requirements, the automatic soil moisture monitoring station may also include other auxiliary equipment, such as solar panels, power supply equipment, etc., to support long-term monitoring in the field.

With the help of sensor technology, data acquisition and processing technology, the Automatic Soil Moisture Monitoring Station can achieve real-time monitoring and data analysis of soil moisture, thus providing important technical support for agriculture, environment and scientific research.
