Rain Bird has finally released a product to match up against their main competitor. Toro has had a lot of success with their soil sensors over the past few years and I know a few superintendents that really like them. Buried anywhere you irrigate on the golf course you can monitor soil moisture, temperature and salinity. Vail Golf Club is not the easiest site for wireless technology (see AT&T). But the research and comparisons will begin! The nice option with the new Rain Bird ISS is that it can "speak" with the Rain Bird Central Control System. There is a neat little video with the link that describes the "nuts and bolts" of the product.
