Irriget

Irriget provides farmers and advisors with satellite-informed irrigation guidance and water-balance estimates to optimise water use and improve crop performance. The service fuses optical and radar remote sensing with crop and hydrological models to estimate soil moisture, evapotranspiration and crop water demand across fields, producing irrigation schedules and maps. By combining satellite observations with agronomic rules, Irriget helps reduce water consumption and supports water accounting for farm and regional planning. The platform is powered primarily by ESA Copernicus data (Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, Sentinel-3) and has been adopted by more than half of irrigated potato plantations in Poland, earning a Gold Medal at the POLAGRA International Fair 2023.

Key capabilities:

• Water Balance Estimation: Combines EO-derived evapotranspiration and soil moisture proxies to model field water status at sub-field spatial resolution.
• Soil Moisture Monitoring: Uses SAR and multispectral inputs to track moisture variability across fields.
• Irrigation Scheduling: Produces actionable schedules and maps for targeted irrigation management, including zone-level analysis for reel irrigation systems.
• Crop Condition & Stress Mapping: Generates vegetation stress indices and crop condition maps to guide agronomic decisions.
• Web Delivery & Reporting: Field-level dashboards, map exports and advisory notes for farm managers via a subscription web portal.
• All-weather Observability: SAR-enabled continuity when cloud cover limits optical sensing.
