Select the source for rainfall, solar radiation, and evapotranspiration data.
Gridded Numerical Weather (~3 km HRRR / ERA5)
Weather is derived directly for site coordinates (defined above in General Information). Provides model reanalysis and nowcast data, not physical station sensors.
Florida Automated Weather Network (UF/IFAS)
Official ground station network (47 stations statewide). Measurements represent regional ground station conditions, not direct on-site field measurements.
Representativeness advisory: Station is located at a regional research/extension site. "Nearest" station does not guarantee field-level microclimatic equivalence.
Enable if an on-site datalogger (e.g. Campbell Scientific CR1000X) is monitoring irrigation switch closures.
