摘要: Systems and methods for determining optimal water capacity or distribution for each of a plurality of sections of a field to be irrigated by an ancillary span of an irrigation system are provided. A path is determined for a steering tower of the ancillary span that is comprised of a plurality of position-based coordinates. The position of the ancillary span steering tower (and thus the position of the ancillary span) relative to the determined path is always known and, accordingly, the optimal water capacity or distribution for the needs of its location can be readily determined based upon a calculated area factor percentage.

摘要: Aspects of the disclosure provide systems and methods for controlling the flow of water through zones of an ancillary span of an irrigation system to achieve optimal water distribution for each of a plurality of sections of a field-of-interest to be irrigated by the ancillary span. The disclosed systems and methods optimally turn control zones on and off to minimize the flow variability of water supplied to the ancillary span. The technology described herein runs a series of simulations to determine an optimal irrigation plan for the ancillary span. The instantaneous average flow at different points within a simulation may be calculated. The plurality of instantaneous average flows are used to determine a variance statistic for the plurality, which is used to determine the optimal plan.

摘要: A speed-control system for an irrigation system may detect when an actual speed of the irrigation system is faster or slower than a target speed of the irrigation system. In some instances, the speed-control system may detect when the actual speed is faster or slower at discrete virtual points of interest and execute compensatory measures.
