Automated sprinkler adjustment system
Aspects of the disclosure relate to a method that may include receiving a watering restriction for a location, detecting that a sprinkler controller is associated with a property within the location, and transmitting, to the sprinkler controller, the watering restriction. Additionally, a method may include receiving, at a sprinkler controller, a watering restriction for a location, the sprinkler controller associated with a property within the location, and adjusting, in response to the watering restriction, a sprinkling schedule for the property. Furthermore, a method may include receiving weather prediction information associated with a property, updating, in response to the weather prediction information, a sprinkling schedule for a sprinkler system associated with the property, receiving, after a time period, updated weather prediction information for the property, and updating the sprinkling schedule based on a comparison between the sprinkling schedule and the weather prediction information over the time period.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a computing device, a water sensor measurement for a first sprinkler controller associated with a first geographic region;
determining, by the computing device, that the water sensor measurement satisfies a threshold;
determining a geographic association based on a geographic distance between the first geographic region and a second geographic region associated with a second sprinkler controller; and
based on the water sensor measurement satisfying the threshold and based on the geographic association, sending, by the computing device and to the second sprinkler controller, a message indicating an adjustment to a sprinkling schedule of the second sprinkler controller.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining the adjustment to the sprinkling schedule of the second sprinkler controller based on the water sensor measurement received for the first sprinkler controller.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the water sensor measurement comprises one or more of: a water runoff measurement, a water infiltration measurement, a water percolation measurement, a water saturation measurement, or a water usage rate.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the adjustment comprises at least one of: modifying a watering profile of the second sprinkler controller, modifying a zone profile associated with the second sprinkler controller, or modifying a sprinkling profile associated with the second sprinkler controller.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining the adjustment to the sprinkling schedule of the second sprinkler controller based on a difference between an elevation of the first geographic region and an elevation of the second geographic region.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining the adjustment to the sprinkling schedule of the second sprinkler controller based on weather prediction information.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the adjustment comprises causing the second sprinkler controller to water during a predetermined time period.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, by the computing device and from the second sprinkler controller, a confirmation that the sprinkling schedule of the second sprinkler controller was adjusted.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first geographic region is adjacent to the second geographic region.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:
determining the adjustment to the sprinkling schedule of the second sprinkler controller based on comparing a first soil type of the first geographic region and a second soil type of the second geographic region.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the threshold is based upon a watering restriction.
12. A method comprising:
receiving, by a computing device and from a first sprinkler controller, a water sensor measurement for a first geographic region associated with the first sprinkler controller;
determining, by the computing device, that the water sensor measurement satisfies a threshold;
determining an adjustment to a sprinkling schedule of a second sprinkler controller based on:
the determining that the water sensor measurement satisfies the threshold; and
a geographic association based on the geographic distance between the first geographic region and a second geographic region associated with the second sprinkler controller; and
causing the second sprinkler controller to water the second geographic region based on the adjustment to the sprinkling schedule.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the adjustment to the sprinkling schedule of the second sprinkler controller comprises adjusting a water flow rate.
14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the water sensor measurement comprises one or more of: a water runoff measurement, a water infiltration measurement, a water percolation measurement, a water saturation measurement, or a water-usage rate.
15. The method of claim 12 , wherein the computing device is located remotely from the first sprinkler controller.
16. A method comprising:
receiving, by a first sprinkler controller associated with a first geographic region, water sensor information for a second sprinkler controller associated with a second geographic region;
determining, by the first sprinkler controller, to adjust a sprinkling schedule of the first sprinkler controller based on:
the water sensor information for the second sprinkler controller, and
an association based on a geographic distance between the first geographic region and the second geographic region; and
based on the determining to adjust the sprinkling schedule, causing an adjustment to the sprinkling schedule of the first sprinkler controller.
17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the water sensor information comprises one or more of: a water runoff reading, a water infiltration reading, a water percolation reading, a water saturation reading, or a water-usage rate.
18. The method of claim 16 , wherein the adjustment is based on one or more characteristics associated with the first sprinkler controller.
