Finapp
Life from Cosmos_We measure Water using Cosmic Cays
Start-up of ITA - Italian Trade Agency
Description
Finapp is the innovative startup that developed and industrialized CRNS (cosmic ray neutrons sensing) probes. The method uses cosmic rays that continuously reach the Earth's surface: from their interaction with water molecules in soil, plants, and snow, a "fog" of suspended neutrons is formed that when measured allows us to determine: The Soil Moisture, The Water Resource (Water content in the Snow), The pre-localization of Water Losses, The Hydrogeological and Climatic Risk (Landslides, Drought)
TARGET: Hydroelectric Production and Basin Consortia, in the assessment of the available Water Resource through the measurement of SWE; In Precision Agriculture by providing key informations for the development of Irrigation strategies; Entities and Institutions using Early Warning information for avalanches, mudslides and landslides mitigation; Municipalities, Utilities that will be able to have monitoring and qualification of the water network through very fast pre-location of leaks;
