Usage

Soil Moisture

Indicates the water status of your soil, enabling early detection of irrigation issues and supporting water management decisions.

Overview

Soil moisture analysis uses satellite data to estimate the water content in the top layer of soil across your field. This helps identify areas that are too dry or too wet, supporting irrigation scheduling and drainage management.

Process Soil Moisture

GraphQL Mutation
mutation { processSoilMoisture( polygonId: "abc123-def456-ghi789" startDate: "2025-06-01" endDate: "2025-08-31" ) { Status Message Result { requestId } } }

Retrieve Soil Moisture

GraphQL Query
query { retrieveSoilMoisture( polygonId: "abc123-def456-ghi789" startDate: "2025-06-01" endDate: "2025-08-31" ) { colorlegend tif png json } }

Response Format

Returns the standard four output types:

  • colorlegend — Static reference image for the moisture color scale.
  • tif — GeoTIFF raster files for GIS processing.
  • png — Visual PNG images showing moisture distribution.
  • json — Statistical summaries per date.

Tip: Combine soil moisture with Water Stress (NDWI) and Weather data for comprehensive irrigation management.
