About this app
The purpose of the Valve-Check App is to monitor and record daily irrigation cycles in real time.
As a farmer, you go to great lengths to determine the correct amount of water for each irrigation cycle. This app will enable you to monitor and manage your irrigation instructions efficiently.
Instead of giving the operator a verbal or written instruction, you can use Valve-Check to send your instructions to your operators in real time!
The process:
• The manager enters the instruction for each block.
• The operator can now see his instructions in real-time in his own app.
• When he starts the cycle, he clicks on the “Start” button, and Valve-Check will capture the starting time automatically, using the time on his cell phone’s system clock.
• Valve-Check also uses his cell phone’s GPS function to determine if he is in close proximity of the correct valve. If he isn’t, he wouldn’t be able to enter any data for that valve.
• After he has started the cycle, Valve-Check will, based on the instruction, calculate and display the required stopping time.
• When the cycle has reached it’s closing time, he clicks on the “Stop” button. Valve-Check will once again enter the phone’s system time as the closing time. His cell phone’s GPS is again used to determine if he is in close proximity of the valve.
• If there is an interruption, he stops the cycle and enters the reason for the interruption.
• The manager can see the interruption immediately and can take remedial steps.
• Once the interruption has been cleared, he re-starts the cycle.
• Valve-Check will now enter the new starting time and calculate the new stopping time according to the outstanding time required to complete the cycle.
• The manager and the supervisor can view the status of the cycles in real time on their own phones.
Here is an example of the status of cycles taken at 11h30 on a specific day:
Block Hours Open Close Interruption
A1 3 08h00 11h00
B2 3 09h00 12h00
C3 4 10h00 14h00 Pipe burst
C4 2 14h00 16h00
• Block A1 has been completed
• Block B2 is in progress
• Block C3 has been interrupted because of a burst pipe
• Block C4 has not been started yet
The data can be exported in spreadsheet format and analyzed and printed on your computer.
