In order to validate soil moisture data obtained by satellite remote-sensing and direct soil moisture sensor, we are testing real-time monitoring of soil information at a rain-fed field in Northeast Thailand by using Field Server with soil moisture sensors. In this study, we outline this new monitoring system and discuss the problems that we must solve.
