Onset Publishes Best Practices Guide On Monitoring Green Roof Performance




BOURNE, MA — As green roofs become more popular for environmentally-sensitive, sustainable buildings, monitoring and documenting their performance has become important.

A new 12-page best practices guide from Onset, Monitoring Green Roof Performance with Weather Stations, discusses the importance of monitoring and documenting green roof performance, and explains how data logging weather stations can help measure stormwater runoff, improve irrigation scheduling, and help maintain healthy rooftop vegetation. It also includes tips and guidance on selecting and deploying weather stations for green roof monitoring projects.
