Contactless, continuous, large-scale (5 hectares) and deep soil moisture measurement (50 cm in the soil). Measurement independent of texture, salinity, soil surface roughness.

We use Cosmic Rays to measure water
Finapp has designed and patented the next generation of CRNS probes that use cosmic rays to measure water without contact, on a large-scale, in depth and continuously. This is the FINAPP revolution: particle physics at the service of environmental sustainability.

Solutions and applications
Starting from a unique knowledge of Water Content, we offer specific solutions for Precision Agriculture, for the management of Water Resources also for hydropower production, with Pre-localisation of water losses in municipal networks, for the monitoring of Hydrogeological Risk and Fires, and for Scientific Research.
The pros of Finapp solutions
Site-specific soil moisture monitoring. The measurement covers 5-10 hectares and the probe is easily installed even in remote and inaccessible areas.
The probes pre-locate water losses 10 voice faster than traditional techniques (up to 150 km/day analysed). It saves time, optimizes costs and is operator-independent.
The probe allows simultaneous neutrons and muons counting, with continuous in situ incoming evaluation. It is possible to measure in situ over 3,100 neutrons/h and 10,000 muons/h!
Snow Water Content (SWE) measurement with saturation > 10,000 mm, large-scale measurement, non-operator dependent, not affected by bridging phenomena.
The Finapp
probe
The Finapp probe measures Soil Moisture in Soil and Water Content in the Snow, thanks to neutrons generated by cosmic rays.
