• Measuring sap flow allows tree and plant water use to be calculated on a daily or seasonal basis, and subsequently informing irrigation choices or species selection. Realtime monitoring of these measurements has not been possible until ICT International developed the SFM1x range of Sap Flow Meters using Internet of Things (IoT).
• Using the Heat Ratio Method, the SFM1x can measure plant water use when the stem or root diameter is greater than 10mm, including: Low & zero sap flow rates; Reverse sap flow rates; Night-time water use; High flow rates
• Data from the SFM1x can also be downloaded and processed using ICT International Sap Flow Tool software. The software also allows for instant visualising of sap flow in 2- and 3- dimensions.
