In-Canopy Weather Stations and Sensors

Accuracy where it matters most:

Better decisions start with better data: Fuel important decisions with the most accurate climatic conditions measured from in-canopy sensors right in your orchards instead of data from remote weather stations.
Granular, near real-time insights: Track temperature and humidity at a per-acre level with updates every 10 minutes.
Hands-off, labour-free install: We install the system so you don’t have to.

Semios temperature heatmaps show in-canopy temperature readings on every acre every 10 minutes

Better Risk Management

Minimize risk to your crops by understanding the climate conditions on every acre:

Degree-day reporting for effective spray timing: Know your orchard’s optimal application windows for greater impact based on in-canopy degree-day tracking.
Humidity levels for better disease management: Identify and target locations with the highest disease risk based on in-canopy humidity readings.
Temperature reporting for chill and frost management: In-canopy temperature readings provide the most accurate data for tracking accumulated chill portions or hours, and for advising frost management decisions.

Semios’ professional Field Services team handles installation, remote monitoring, and maintenance so you don’t need to worry about the tech.

"Having your own personal weather station on your orchard and not miles away from your orchard provides more accurate and useful data like: rain totals, degree-day calculations that you can discuss with your PCA for spray timing and chill portions tracking and being able to compare with last year numbers. Semios has also been very timely answering questions and providing support for their software they have installed."
