Introduction
The goal of our application
Motivation California was in 5th year of severe drought About 40% of water consumed is used for irrigation
purposes Greater percentage of soil is destroyed by over-soaking
rather than dryness
Idea Our focus is environment friendly smart watering system Basic concept- manage water sprinklers on campus
grounds Prevent plant & soil destruction Optimize water usage by
Estimating Soil Moisture Collecting weather data
Organize water usage data and statistics
Existing infrastructure at SFSU
No intelligent automation for sprinklers on various grounds: Automation : timer based Manual override
Lots of manual work No soil moisture measurement or calculation
Cox Stadium
Maloney Field
West Campus Green
~ 40 % of campus is covered by lawns
Demanding significant use of water for irrigating them .

Demo
Accomplishments Achieved insights
Dashboard with analytics on water usage Gained connectivity
Determining how much water needed for soil Achieved optimization
Maintain required Moisture Level Automated Sprinkler System Monitor Water Usage
Advantages of using our application Cost effective Reduced water bills Maximize soil’s absorption rate, optimize condition = Less
money spent on lawn maintenance Less manual intervention - man-hour saved Smart campus ideology Environment friendly
Benefits(Numbers) Optimize soil and plant conditions covering 171,182 square
meters of land Save 1,578,516-2,298,000 gallons of water per annum Financial Savings of up to $25,000 per annum(excluding
labor) Crucial to note that these are numbers for only one campus,
the possibilities of positive impact are colossal!
Future
Mobile App to control sprinklers remotely Soil moisture sensors Anomaly detection for damaged sprinklers Scientific enhancements of analytics
