Abstract: The smart irrigation system was developed to optimize water use of crops. The system has a distributed wireless network of soil-moisture temperature sensors placed in the root zone of the plants. Also, a gateway unit handles sensor information, triggers, actuators, and transmits data to the web application. The intelligence of The proposed system is based on a smart algorithm, which considers sensed data along with the weather forecast parameters like precipitation, air temperature, humidity, and UV for the near future. The complete system has been developed and deployed on a pilot scale, where the sensor node data is wirelessly collected over the cloud using web- services and a web-based information visualization and decision support system provides real-time information insights based on the analysis of sensor dataand weather forecast data. The paper describes the system and discusses in detail the information processing results of three weeks data based on the proposed algorithm. The system is fully functional and the prediction results are very encouraging
