ABSTRACT:
The system for optimization of irrigation system operation comprises a computer, a storage device coupled to the computer for storing data, a global positioning satellite transmission receiver coupled to the computer, a geographic information satellite transmission receiver coupled to the computer, a plurality of irrigation pivot controllers remotely coupled to the computer, and a grid power monitor coupled to the computer for providing power grid demand and usage data to the computer. The system may also include a plurality of sensors located in each of the irrigated fields which transmit soil information directly to the central computer and which supplement the information from the GIS satellite. The computer in turn generates priorities of operation for the irrigation systems based on the soil condition information and most economical load operating periods from the electrical power utility.
