Real-time plant health monitoring system
First Claim
1. A real-time plant health monitoring system, comprising:
- a computer adapted to transmit a species profile associated with an installed plant; and
a probe adapted to receive the species profile from the computer, collect environmental data, identify an adverse environmental condition using the environmental data and the species profile and output an alert regarding the adverse environmental condition.

Abstract
A real-time plant health monitoring system comprises a probe and a computer. The computer obtains a species profile for the installed plant. The species profile is downloaded to the probe. The probe is installed at a site of a plant. The probe collects environmental data at the site. The probe identifies an adverse environmental condition using the species profile and the environmental data and outputs an alert, which advantageously enables the user to take timely corrective action to improve the health of the installed plant. The nature of the adverse environmental condition may be explicit in the alert. The processed environmental data and/or information regarding the adverse environmental condition may be uploaded to a computer, which may identify the adverse environmental condition and direct the user to troubleshooting information, such as technical information or product purchasing information.
