Does the institution use weather data or weather sensors to automatically adjust irrigation practices?:
Yes

A brief description of how weather data or sensors are used:

The Weather Trak system automatically adjusts the irrigation based on the satellite information it receives from the NOAA weather stations.

We can go on line and make adjustments if we need to and we can turn off any system we want from anywhere in the world where we can use an internet phone.
