Review on MicaSense by Aaron Ward

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easy and quick way for taking soil moisture readings

The ability to take measurements easily, without having any training or experience with this system. I have no complaints about the product as it has been very easy to use. It seems like there are ways that could be improved however they do not seem complicated enough where anyone can't figure them out themselves. If you want an accurate measurement tool, then definitely go ahead! We used micasense at my previous job. This allowed us to get more precise results than we would normally obtain by other methods such as measuring water depth directly using our feet/feet plus hand tools etc.. In addition because these sensors were mounted outside of buildings, we were able to measure rainfall throughout different seasons which helped improve irrigation practices during the summer months when crops needed most attention.

Pros
  • It quickly gives accurate measurements for rainfall and soil moisture and does not take days to get the results
Cons
  • It would be more helpful if there were a way to upload/export data that it has collected over time in a way that is easy to analyze
