Agriculture

Time- and location-specific field data for better understanding of soil, microclimate, irrigation and remote agricultural infrastructure

Farm soil and weather sensors sending data towards a farm operations building.

What does industrial IoT mean here?

Conditions are not identical across every part of a field

Soil conditions, weather, irrigation demand and greenhouse environments change across space and time. Industrial IoT collects data from dispersed measurement points and brings it into farm decision processes, so action need not rely on an impression from just one location.

Industry context

72%

was agriculture’s share of global freshwater withdrawals in 2023.

What does this mean for digitalisation?

The value of field data related to water is not merely technical: measurements linked to place and time can support the preparation and later assessment of irrigation decisions.

A global withdrawal share; local water balance and irrigation decisions require site-specific data.

The digital opportunity

Not one technology, but a connected operational picture

Value emerges when field data is connected to the industry’s actual decision contexts.

Soil and microclimate

Soil moisture, temperature and weather data can be interpreted with their measurement location and time.

Irrigation and resource planning

Trends can help time inspections and action, without replacing the agronomic model or decision.

Greenhouses and remote infrastructure

Separate production sites, mechanical assets and environmental values can be organised into a shared operational view.

Large areas, low power

Radio coverage, power supply, maintainability and device life together determine whether the system works in practice.

Where can it improve visibility?

From field signal to useful context

Location-specific data

Soil moisture and other environmental values stay connected to their measurement point.

Fewer blind spots

Changes at more distant sites can be followed where coverage allows.

Better-timed attention

Trends help decide which site to inspect and when.

The data path

From measurement point to operational decision

Field sensor

Soil, weather or greenhouse measurements.

LoRaWAN and backhaul

Local radio data collection and transfer to the receiving system.

Farm overview

Measurements interpreted with their location, time and operating process.

Where does Intelliport fit?

In the layer between the field point and usable data

Intelliport focuses on connectivity, device management and system integration adapted to the actual environment. We do not replace the industry process, professional judgement or receiving applications.

Field gateway and backhaul

Matching LoRaWAN collection and mobile backhaul to the site conditions.

Remote management and edge

Supervising communications devices and, where justified, processing data locally.

Partner ecosystem

Supporting integration of customer or partner sensors, the LNS and agricultural application.
