| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses "golf course irrigation...systems that feature more gadgets and more accessibility," including the tentatively called Master Control Architecture. States that "the password-protected, Web-based system allows Mark Esoda, [superintendent] at Atlanta Country Club [in Atlanta, Georgia], to control his...irrigation system through any Windows-based Internet browser." Describes Watervision software from Watertronics which "can upgrade an irrigation system's capabilities and help superintendents use water and electricity more efficiently." States that "these high-tech pump systems could not accomplish much without the help of central control systems that utilize the Internet." Discusses other technology that may help superintendents, including central control systems, field controllers, and decoder controllers. |
