Description
Summary:The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies into pressurized irrigation water distribution networks holds significant potential for optimizing water utilization, especially given the escalating concerns about scarcity and increasing demand. Nevertheless, within the irrigation domain, the utilization of specific technologies and management strategies based on IoT technologies is not yet as widespread as their well-established efficacy would suggest. The present work proposes a management strategy based on such technologies to enhance the sustainability of a case study network, using real operational data during the irrigation season.
