Does the institution use weather data or weather sensors to automatically adjust irrigation practices?:
Yes
None
A brief description of how weather data or sensors are used:
Irrigation is next to nothing on the UW-Milwaukee campus. There is no permanent built in irritgation system. Only flower pots and distinct beds are watered. The Grounds crew uses daily weather data from online and our own weather system to make determinations daily on water practices. Extreme droughts, such as the summer of 2012, did inform some extra tree watering.
None
