Our first station deployed in Xochimilco, Mexico by SensorETA.
Mexico City faces a well-known water crisis. Less known is that Xochimilco, (a UNESCO World Heritage site south of Mexico City) is sinking, largely due to this crisis.
Weather data collected by this station, along with others to be deployed, will help farmers, gardeners, and boat owners in Xochimilco make informed decisions about the ongoing drought issues.
Xochimilco’s water level faces two major problems: the drought conditions affecting much of the country and the practice of pumping water out of Xochimilco to support the city’s growing population, only to pump back in “treated” water.
We can bring more stations to underserved areas like Xochimilco and help local farmers prevent losses caused by weather conditions and absence of quality weather data.
