Smart Irrigation Management for Parks and Cool Towns (SIMPaCT) is a technology research project that helps keep Bicentennial Park cool during increasingly hot summers. This is done by maximising the moisture plants release through the pores in their leaves – through a combination of environmental monitoring, machine learning, and irrigation optimisation – with the added benefit of reducing water usage.
Learn more about the project on the SIMPaCT website.
