Weather Monitoring options from Spectrum Technologies include a wide range of products from our WatchDog Weather Stations to Weather Monitoring Sensors to Environmental Meters. Providing options that fit your needs and help to give you consistent and healthy crops and flowers or dependable turf playing conditions is our goal.
Understanding current weather conditions on your fields, in your greenhouse or on your golf course is vital and can help address potential issues proactively! Weather Stations, Mini Stations, Micro Stations and Sprayer Stations can be used to monitor site-specific areas to determine and manage microclimates. WatchDog Stations are customizable, allowing you to monitor the inputs essential to your operations. Numerous integrated sensor options are available to measure key parameters such as soil moisture, light, air temperature, relative humidity, rainfall and wind speed and direction. These measurements allow you to view calculations of evapotranspiration (ET), degree days and other important metrics to grow and manage healthy crops, flowers and turf. All environmental data is logged at user-defined intervals for tracking trends over time, reporting capabilities and at-a-glance monitoring allows for more informed decisions.
In addition to the sensors that come integrated into your weather station, you can customize and add additional sensors as desired to get all the information your want from your station. Take monitoring one step further by adding an IPM disease and insect package. Use additional parameters such as leaf wetness to determine when the conditions are right for a particular disease.
To make receiving your information simple and in line with what you are looking for, we have wireless Cellular, WiFi, and Radio Communication options for real-time, on demand data viewing. We also have non-wireless Data Recorder options if you want to gather information and download it to your PC as you need it.
Our WatchDog Mobile App allows you to configure your compatible station and view Current Conditions and Reports. See what is going on in your field or golf course before you even leave your house in the morning!
Our SpecConnect Cloud Solution allows you to access data from your compatible WatchDog Station on demand from your phone, PC or tablet. View Current Conditions in the WatchDog App and create reports that can help you tell a story to better manage your irrigation decisions. SpecConnect is required for all Wireless Weather Stations using Cellular or WiFi Communication and can be used with the WatchDog Pup/Retriever Radio System when a DataScout Modem is added to the Retriever.
Our SpecWare Software provides a permanent record of your data and allows you to view data on your PC. When real time data viewing is not necessary, but data reporting is still desired, SpecWare is the right choice. You can choose from the Basic or Pro versions based on the requirements of the weather monitoring system you have. Data can be downloaded directly to your PC via USB or direct connection.
