**12. Smart irrigation system**

Smart irrigation technology uses weather data or soil moisture data to determine the irrigation need of the landscape. Smart irrigation technology includes: These products maximize irrigation efficiency by reducing water waste while maintaining plant health and quality. Using intelligent irrigation devices, outdoor water savings are possible. In contrast to conventional effective automated timers, which irrigate according to a user-determined set schedule, smart irrigation control systems and sensors have been created to reduce external water usage by irrigation depending on plant water needs. This technology can be used to construct a smart controller by attaching a sensor to an existing water distribution timer or as a whole controller. Utilizing smart irrigation systems in the landscape may help to cut back on water usage outside. Both tiny, private landscapes and huge, professionally managed landscapes can increase productivity. The functions of each product, as well as their benefits and drawbacks, are covered in the sections that follow.
