Root View Soil Moisture Monitoring System
Achieve X-Ray Vision for your Soil!
Root View is a stand-alone soil moisture monitoring system that combines industry-leading soil moisture probes with a ruggedized cellular gateway & remote monitoring platform. Root View’s unique multi-sensor probe design delivers moisture & temperature data at various depths, providing insights into soil moisture content, plant rooting activity, and overall soil health. With low-maintenance telemetry & a simple remote monitoring platform, access moisture data with confidence at any time, from anywhere.
More Data = More Insights
Do you suspect that a hardpan is preventing deep rooting? Want to determine how far your plant’s roots extend? Stop guessing and start growing! With probes available from 8" to 60” sizes, you'll see data at depths only Root View can deliver.
Fuss-Free
With Root View’s battery-powered LTE-M gateway, connecting soil moisture data to the cloud is as simple as making a splice (we even provide the connector!). With a robust IP68 rating, install the Root View gateway anywhere you monitor soil moisture: in tree grates, in open air, or in valve boxes.
Enhanced Access
From single-system sites to municipalities managing a probe network, streamline data collection & management with Root View Net by My Ag Buddy. View at-a-glance sensor data such as average soil moisture & gateway troubleshooting information via map, or export detailed graphs for a single sensor.
