Turning Water Data Into Business Outcomes
How Does SWAN Work?
SWAN Systems is a precision irrigation and fertiliser platform that enables water managers to improve yield whilst conserving resources. SWAN technology is tailored to an exact geography and irrigation context; transforming historic, current and predictive data from multiples sources into actionable insights. This allows users to make better decisions about how much to irrigate and when.
The Need For SWAN Systems
Global demand for food and water is set to double over coming decades. The changing climate is putting pressure on our available resources, making it critical to conserve what we have.
At the same time, irrigators are recognising the importance of data in informing their planning, budgeting, monitoring, management, and reporting of water and nutrients applied. Whether it’s agriculture or urban green space, the use of smart software can help make sense of this data to enable better management decisions.
That’s where we come in. SWAN Systems is a science-based and user-friendly decision support system that will help you to navigate these factors in a cost effective and accountable way, helping you to save time and money, increase yield and reduce harmful leaching/runoff.
What are SWAN users saying?
“We have learnt a great deal and have a better understanding of our irrigation needs as a result of our participation with SWAN. The support you have provided to date has been second to none and I am very confident we have found the right partner for developing our growing systems into the future.”
“The City of Melbourne had been looking for an integrated and configurable irrigation water management platform. SWAN Systems was successfully tested in one of our parks, and as it met our requirements we are now gradually implementing the system in all our open space areas.”
“SWAN’s ability to incorporate its own unique algorithms with soil moisture probe data and satellite imagery takes my holistic farm management capability to another level.”
“SWAN Systems helps us do our job by bringing all the information together into one place where we can view the data – and so can our clients.”
“The use of SWAN allows irrigation practitioners to be informed in advance of their irrigation requirements and thus minimises wastage of water and leaching of nutrients. By incorporating SWAN into our DataStream integrated monitoring systems, we can make a significant improvement to the health of the environment whilst improving our clients’ productivity.”

Transcending the Data Deluge in Modern Agriculture
More than 150 years ago, Mark Twain famously said, “It’s not what you don’t know that kills you, it’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.” And that is just as true today as when he first said it. This insight led to the birth of SWAN, a tool designed to deal with data and transform it into meaningful, actionable insights. SWAN prioritizes presenting you with clear, useful information over inundating you with endless streams of data.
