Sensor and actuator networks are systems that collect and transmit data from a physical environment for digital processing. Data is collected at sensors and actuators in the field, then digitized at the sensor or actuator. The digitized data can be used for a variety of applications, and the method for data processing depends on the application

As IoT technology evolves, automation will play a more important role by, for instance, automatically stopping the watering process once the soil has received a sufficient level of moisture. Furthermore, analysis of irrigation data transmitted to Cloud computing can help ensure that watering occurs at the optimal time (for example, overnight or at cooler times during the day) to minimize evaporation losses.
