Advanced Soil Moisture Analytics

Water gives life to plants and all of us but it can also play a destructive role in crop production. While rainfall can be used as an indirect indicator of water availability for plants, soil moisture is a more critical indicator. Therefore, EOSDA takes the need for precise remote soil moisture content monitoring very seriously.

Our team of dedicated R&D scientists relies on crucial data obtained from several satellites that monitor soil moisture daily all around the globe using microwave radiation. They apply proprietary algorithms to this imagery to develop effective and accurate soil moisture analytics models.

The resulting surface-level and root-level soil moisture maps can be used for daily monitoring, accurate yield estimations, and for studying important climate trends.

EOSDA team has worked hard to provide you with crucial data on soil moisture:

• Soil moisture at a surface level (0-7cm)
• Soil moisture at root zone (up to 70 cm deep)
• 250m resolution for large-scale data analysis
• Historical data since 2002 and daily updates
• Not affected by clouds or vegetation
• 2-3 day / daily revisit globally (depending on the satellite)
• Available within six hours of satellite overpass

How Can Remote Soil Moisture Monitoring Help Your Business

• Decide On The Most Profitable Crop To Grow In The Region
  Based on the soil moisture archive dating back to 2002, you can determine which type of crop better suits the local conditions: the more moisture-resistant crops or those more sensitive to high levels of moisture.
• Improve Sowing Strategies With Soil Moisture Maps
  Thanks to remote precision soil moisture monitoring, you can more easily decide on the proper preparation of the soil for sowing and germination techniques for growing healthier crops.
• Advanced Crop Monitoring Based On A Soil Moisture Map
  By remotely measuring the soil moisture content at the root level, you get a more comprehensive picture of the crop state all throughout the season and can adjust your field activities accordingly.
• Better Irrigation Planning Based On Soil Moisture Data
  The in-depth soil moisture analytics provides you with a much better understanding of the amount of water to be used in and the frequency of the irrigation activities throughout the season.
