Abstract

The Irriframe cloud services have been developed by Water Boards Italian Association (ANBI) aiming to ensure an efficient use of water resources in the agricultural sector. After 4 years of activity,most of the Italian irrigable areas are covered by the service for over 7 millions of hectares. A daily-basis irrigation scheduling is provided to thousands of farms through the Web, SMS and a Smartphone APP. Irriframe services allow a water saving amountof about 120 million of cubic meters of water for a season. The platform has been designed by anIT company (AltaVia srl, Italy)according tothe knowledge base,provided by the water boards research centre CER. Starting from 2014 the platform is also supported by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture (MIPAAF). This paper describes the Irriframe services and the main development trends for the near future.
