October 31, 2025 – Tucor, a leader in irrigation & water management technologies, today announces the release of the Root View Soil Moisture Monitoring System. 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. 

“For us, Root View is so exciting because the quality of data we deliver in such a flexible design,” said Maggie Sarver, Vice President. “With Root View, we deliver moisture data at multiple depths per probe, so we say it’s like X-Ray Vision for your soil. This soil data provides customers the ability to determine moisture movement & track plant rooting activity. For any customer needing to know more about what is happening in the soil, Root View shines.” 

Tucor’s Root View simplifies its earlier Wireless Soil Moisture product with the Root View Gateway. Designed for harsh environments, the battery-powered, cellular gateway connects directly to the sensor, streamlining both installation & maintenance.  

“Root View refreshes a similar product we had years ago, but we’ve reduced the complexity of the telemetry. Customers in the past have really relied on the moisture & temperature data that we’ve provided, so we knew in this re-design needed to deliver this data in an even more robust & reliable package”.

  • See soil moisture & temperature data as low as 60 inches 
  • Determine depth of plant rooting activity  
  • Fuss-free cellular gateway with 5 years of battery life and waterproof design
