  • Controlling agricultural production areas
    Patent number: 11617313
    Abstract: An irrigation system for an area receives wide-area meteorological prediction data and sensors deployed within the area collect local-area sensor data. A processor stores received data as historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and data from the sensors as historical local-area sensor data. The processor determines a relationship between the historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and the historical local-area sensor data based on the historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and the historical local-area sensor data, and calculates a prediction on a local-area parameter for a future point in time based on current wide-area meteorological prediction data, and the calculated relationship. The area is then controlled based on the prediction.

  • Controlling agricultural production areas
    Patent number: 10798891
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to an irrigation system for an agricultural production area. The system receives wide-area meteorological prediction data and sensors deployed within the agricultural production area collect local-area sensor data. A processor stores received data as historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and data from the sensors as historical local-area sensor data. The processor determines a correlation between the historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and the historical local-area sensor data based on the historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and the historical local-area sensor data, and calculates a prediction on water supply relative to water demand within the agricultural production area based on current wide-area meteorological prediction data, and the calculated correlation.
