conditions, 2014 is shaping up to be one of the driest years on record in California. Since 1982, the California Department of Water Resources (CDWR) has operated more than 140 monitoring stations that provide daily measurements of agricultural weather conditions and the amount of water lost to the atmosphere by a well-water grass surface. Data from this network is distributed through the California Irrigation Management Information System (CIMIS), operated by CDWR. To date, this information has been shown to have great value as a tool for irrigation managers to determine the water requirements for their crops.</p> <p><figure class=" auto-half-width" ><img src='data:image/svg+xml;base64,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' data-src='https://res.cloudinary.com/tbmg/c_scale,w_auto,f_auto,q_auto/v1563056430/sites/tb/articles/2014/insider/tm_0310_stry01_web.jpg' class=' w-100 w-100 cld-responsive' alt='' /><figcaption>NASA is implementing Web and mobile data interfaces to increase the ability of growers to access and use satellite data in irrigation management and crop monitoring.
