Chapter 1 – Overview and Learning Objectives

Overview

The Internet of Things, called “IoT” for short, is playing a role in helping growers all over the world better use water for growing plants; whether that is a golf course superintendent, a wheat farmer, a tomato greenhouse grower, or an urban rooftop gardener.

Each grower using an IoT irrigation system can see the status of the system on their phone and optimize the timing and amount of irrigation and even control the water delivery remotely over the internet.  In this module you will learn more about IoT.
