ProData wireless standard weather station with solar sensor - turf package 1 - local data recording
The ProData wireless standard weather station with solar sensor also comes with Weatherlink Live as the Turf 1 package.
Turf 1 package overview (Local wi-fi or ethernet)
The WeatherLink Live hub must be in a building or office and linked to the local wi-fi or ethernet connection. The station must be within wireless range which is a maximum 300mtr line of site (buildings, walls, and trees etc will decrease the range).
Turf 1 package includes
Wireless STD weather station (features):
Anemometer (Wind Speed & Direction)
0.2mm per tip rain gauge
Temperature and humidity Sensor
Solar radiation sensor (W/M2) and E.T Evapotranspiration
ProData Pro Subscription - 1 Year. Weatherlink.com - Store your weather data in the Weatherlink Cloud and see the live data on any connected device. Weatherlink.Com Pro Feature Set - Access to current conditions, historical data, bulletins, map, chart and data.
WeatherLink Live Hub - Uploads the Weather Station and Sensor data to the cloud for viewing on a dedicated Web Portal and Mobile Device APPs
Additional options for the Turf 1 package
PDR1 - Dedicated Agronomic reporting software and data reporting package.

A6345 wireless leaf and soil moisture/temperature station
Adding a 6345OV transmitter to the Turf 1 package allows for a leaf wetness and soil temperature sensor to be added
A6420 Leaf Wetness Sensor
Davis leaf moisture sensor accurately reflects leaf moisture/dew levels on the grass plant leaf. A key component in disease forecasting. The leaf moisture sensor gives a reading from 0–15 where 0 = dry and 15 = saturated.
A6470 Temperature Probe
Single depth temperature probe
7716a Mounting Tripod with Ground Spikes
7717 – Mounting Pole (1mtr)
What data can your weather generate?
E.T (Evapotranspiration) and rainfall data
Soil moisture status and plant stress
(Irrigation requirement-soil moisture deficit/surplus)
Min and Max air temperature
Grass and insect growth model
(Daily growth degree days – daily growth potential)
Leaf moisture status (if sensor fitted)
Leaf Moisture Status
(Dew intensity for spraying, removal, disease pressure)
Relative Humidity and Dewpoint
Disease Activity Data
(Smith Kerns Dollar Spot model – real time disease pressure indicator)
Rainfall data – mm per hour and time of max rainfall
Rainfall data
(Flooding events, bunker wash outs on golf courses, etc.)
Wind Data, Maximum Gust & Time of Max Gust
Spray windows
(Spray windows, tree fall incidents, health and safety)
A key consideration is the location of the weather station (and any associated sensors) it is strongly recommended not to locate on a building or roofline. Ideally situated in an open and flat location to replicate the conditions and areas of interest.
