Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Conference Paper Description
This paper presents the development of an irrigation system oriented to the automation of crop irrigation through the use of technological tools to be used in precision agriculture, focused on supporting irrigation processes in crops. For this, an autonomous hydraulic irrigation system was developed that works employing a storage system and self-sustainable energy control, allowing irrigation decision-making in the areas where it is needed at all times. This irrigation system makes use of a service to measure environmental variables, such as ambient temperature, soil moisture and relative humidity using sensors, for decision making. The irrigation system was designed with solenoid valves as actuators, controlled through relays, and with 2 solar panels and a set of lithium batteries regulated by a battery management system for self-supply. A system like the one presented in this article becomes an alternative for small farmers, besides that, it has the main characteristic of having a high margin of scalability at a technological and economic level.
