What It Tells You
A live soil reading is a measured value from a probe in the field: soil moisture as a percentage and soil temperature in °C, with the device and the time it came from. Soil moisture tells you whether the crop can take up nitrogen this week and whether the ground will carry a spreader. Soil temperature tells you whether the seedbed is warm enough to drill and whether the soil is warm enough for an application. The same readings feed the drilling window, nitrogen timing and water stress models. A field with a probe gets those answers from its own soil.How It Works
An AgriHub360 Sensor reports every 15 minutes or slower over LoRa to the Hub. The Hub posts each reading to the Device API. A device you bring or a weather station you already own posts to the same place. Each reading is labelled measured and shown on the field timeline next to the modelled value it replaces. The field page sets the two soil readings as figures, with the week’s shape under each and a red figure when the reading is out of the crop’s range. The Sensors tab lists every device with its last reading, how long ago it came, and the day’s sparkline. A sensor that stops reporting is shown as stale, and a card says what to do: restart the gateway, check the probe’s battery, or check the station’s upload settings. A silent gateway takes its sensors’ silence with it, so it is one card, not five.
A probe in the soil, with its moisture and temperature readings and the Hub that receives them.
