"Efficient irrigation in our green areas is essential for trees and plants to grow in perfect condition and thus guarantee the improvement of the environment, air quality and the safety of citizens.
These reviews also allow proper use of water , measuring the water need of each area, saving resources and costs "highlighted José GuillénThe Murcia City Council, through the Department of Urban Development and Administration Modernization led by José Guillén, has begun the review of the more than 60,000 drippers and efficient irrigation systems in the municipality, this being a fundamental measure to guarantee that these devices work correctly, achieving maximum use of irrigation water and guaranteeing its efficient use in each green area.The drippers and irrigation system fulfill an essential function for the maintenance of green areas since they are in charge, through a remote control system that manages their consumption and use, of transforming a pressurized liquid flow into dew, spraying it into small drops for the purpose of irrigation.These check tasks inspect that the irrigation is operating at the proper pressure and is connected properly.
These drippers and irrigation systems are distributed throughout the gardens of Murcia although in greater numbers, due to the size of the area, in the garden of Las 3 Copas with almost a thousand, the garden of the Constitution with half a thousand or the Garden of Camilo José Cela who has more than 600."Efficient irrigation in our green areas is essential for trees and plants to grow in perfect condition and thus guarantee the improvement of the environment, air quality and the safety of citizens.
These reviews also allow proper use of water , measuring the water need of each area, saving resources and costs "José Guillén highlighted.Among the types of drippers and irrigation systems that are currently working in the parks and gardens of Murcia are: the root irrigation system, for tree roots, micro drippers, bubblers, sprinklers and rotors of medium and long range.Irrigation is also controlled in large trees thanks to the Murcia Smart City strategic projectLarge trees are controlled by sensors that increase security controls informing the tree environment, temperature, irrigation, soil moisture, as well as foliar.This pioneering initiative, since it is the first time in Spain that it has been carried out on ornamental trees, allows us to have sufficient data to determine a history and predict tree stress situations and minimize risks.This is the case of the ficus from Santo Domingo and Floridablanca that monitor their condition in real time, guaranteeing safety for the residents of Murcia.
The devices are designed to be powered by solar energy and also have a state-of-the-art design that allows them to have minimal energy consumption, and a reduced impact on the environment.This monitoring system is one more element of MiMurcia's solutions as an integrating platform for information and sound for the different services of the Murcia City Council.
