GroPoint™ Air

Wireless Connectivity for GroPoint™ Profile Soil Moisture Sensors

The GroPoint™ Air solution allows agriculture operators to easily and cost effectively build a distributed soil moisture monitoring network using the patented GroPoint™ Profile soil moisture sensor suite; increasing the spatial resolution of data capture (both vertically into the soil and horizontally across locations).

Applications:

  • Smart Agriculture
  • The GroPoint™ Air solution integrates a GroPoint™ Profile multi-depth soil moisture sensor with a LoRaWAN radio transceiver, antenna and battery to provide an integrated wireless soil moisture profile measurement solution.
  • A LoRaWan network or gateway is required for the GroPoint™ Air endpoints to connect to. The data collected from the remote sensors is upload over the LoRaWan network to a cloud based solution that captures and displays the soil moisture profile readings.
  • A fixed measurement interval is set on the GroPoint™ Air device. The interval can be change remotely over the network connection.
  • No external power source is required. The unit is powered by an 8500mAh Li-SOCl2 battery designed for long term use. Depending on the sensor selected, outside operating temperatures, and the measurement interval selected the unit can operate for several years on battery.
  • The LoRa wireless technology used in GroPoint™ Air allows devices to send data and reach extremely long ranges at low data-rates. It provides ultra-long range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity whilst minimizing current consumption.

Features:

  • LoRaWAN 1.0.3 Class A
  • Ultra-low power consumption
  • Supports GroPoint™ Profile
  • Bands: CN470/EU433/KR920/US915/EU868/AS923/AU915/IN865
