AGRICULTURE

CoAgMET Stations

In the early 1990's, Colorado State University Extension plant pathologists and agricultural research service scientists collaborated to collect detailed agricultural data to better understand evapotranspiration and crop water use.  As the network grew, the Colorado Climate Center became increasingly interested in using the data as well and began daily data collection, quality control, and built a web interface to distribute the data to users across the state.  

​Today, the Colorado Agricultural Meteorological Network (CoAgMet) is a network of automatic weather stations that provide internet access to weather and crop use data. Currently, there are 70 stations set up to collect hourly and daily data including temperature, humidity, solar radiation, wind speed, wind direction, and soil temperatures providing important data that can also be used in irrigation scheduling. The UAWCD sponsors five CoAgMet stations within the District boundaries.
