This standard provides:
— principles and formulas for calculating water application intensity under sprinkler irrigation systems (fixed and moving);
— test methods and guidelines for measuring water application intensity under the different systems in laboratory and in field conditions.
It applies to stationary sprinkling systems: solid set sprinkler systems, automatic turf irrigation systems, sprinklers and sprayer for microirrigation systems, and to moving sprinkling systems: reel machine systems, centre pivot and moving laterals systems.
