Radiation Detection Technologies, Inc. (RDT) products

An emerging technology is the Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensor (CRNS). These systems measure naturally occurring neutrons from cosmic rays to understand the moisture levels in soil below the surface, which can help to better understand the impact to plant root systems and nutrients. With such information, we can make better irrigation decisions, conserve energy, and provide better predictive ecological models and warnings for events such as drought and flood conditions. The RDT Cosmic Soil Moisture Monitor (Cosmic-SMM), provides accurate measurements of the water content in soil, providing real-time, critical data to decision makers in irrigation, water management, agriculture, and climate monitoring.
