Abstract

This paper reports the results of a 6-month deployment of a 65-node multi-hop network in a vineyard setting. This deployment specifically looked to discover ways in which a farm setting could find a return on investment for deploying such a network. Our ongoing collaborations of over two years ultimately have included everyone from the vineyard owners to the technology developers. We have been able to find several areas where wireless sensor networks deliver valuable information and provide a return on investment.
