Smart Citizen Water Stations

Although most of our work is with air quality sensors and other related metrics, we also work with water metrics. This section summarises our integration of water sensors, in some cases, with interchangeable probes or drivers for soil measurements. For example, the setup shown below is designed for water measurements and includes Atlas Scientific temperature, conductivity, and pH probes, as well as a GPS.

Soil Stations

The Water Stations can support additional sensors, such as the Chirp Moisture Sensor. More soil sensors can be added as well, by using the Auxiliary connector.

Soil and water

Some probes can be used for both soil and water. Make sure to check each sensor page to see how they work.

Legacy versions

Below you will find some legacy (aka development) versions. These are left here for you to identify them, or in case you want some inspiration.

Through a collaboration with Aquapioneers, we designed the custom enclosure below.
