DropControl for well control
DropControl allows us to provide real-time reporting from our wells to the General Water Directorate (DGA), ensuring compliance with current regulations.
We've been working with DropControl for 5 years, primarily using it for well monitoring to meet DGA requirements, which has worked quite well, reporting data every hour.
We also use the soil moisture probes on the DropControl platform, which helps us gain a better understanding and more precise control of our irrigation strategies for the vineyard, especially during the watering season.
