Case Studies

Almond Orchard – California
A commercial almond grower in California implemented our soil condition loggers to manage irrigation across 200 acres. Using real-time soil moisture and salinity data, they reduced water usage by 22% while improving nut quality and yield. The integration with their irrigation controllers allowed automatic responses to threshold breaches.

Civil Engineering Firm – Colorado
A geotechnical firm in Colorado deployed our sub-surface loggers on a highway expansion project to monitor soil compaction and moisture in embankments. The real-time alerts enabled engineers to make on-the-spot adjustments to compaction processes, avoiding rework and accelerating project completion by two weeks.

Agricultural Research Institution – Ontario
A leading research organization in Ontario partnered with Environmental Telemetry Devices to monitor soil dynamics in experimental corn and soybean plots. By correlating soil moisture and nutrient uptake data, researchers identified optimal fertilization strategies—helping local growers boost crop performance with minimal environmental impact.
