Webinar: Understanding Soil Moisture Sensors: A Technical Deep Dive for Designers and Specifiers

Thursday, June 25, at 9:00 AM PT

Webinar Overview:

Soil moisture sensing has moved from “nice to have” to a core component of any high-performing irrigation design. Volumetric Water Content (VWC) data lets a system irrigate on actual plant need instead of inferred demand — reducing over-watering after rainfall, supporting water budgets, and giving your clients defensible performance data from day one.

In this session, Chris Wright and Brad Meyer will walk through the technical fundamentals that make soil-moisture-first control work in the field — and, just as importantly, how to write soil moisture sensors into your irrigation plans so they get installed and commissioned correctly. You’ll leave with practical guidance on specifying Baseline soil moisture sensors and integrating them with controller platforms for real-time, adaptive irrigation.

Join us on Thursday, June 25, at 9:00 AM PT for a 45-minute live session built specifically for landscape architects and irrigation designers who want to specify smarter, more defensible water management into their projects.

What you’ll learn:

The science behind VWC, field capacity, and wilting point — and why these numbers matter at the design stage
How sensor-based control changes the way you specify hydro-zones, thresholds, and runtimes
How to specify soil moisture sensors in irrigation plans — sensor placement and depth, hydro-zone strategy, controller compatibility, wiring, callouts, and the spec language to include
Cycle and soak strategies that align with soil texture and root zone depth
How adaptive learning controllers dynamically refine field capacity over time
Installation, accuracy, and durability considerations that affect long-term project performance
Real performance data from a recent project, including how rainfall and ET behavior shape day-to-day operation
The final 10 minutes are reserved for your questions. Bring your toughest specification challenges — Chris and Brad will tackle them live!
