How to use the logo
The files are available for coverage of Green Ecolution. To keep the logo recognisable, please observe the following:
- Keep the proportions, so do not stretch or crop the logo.
- Do not change the colours. Use the white variant on dark backgrounds and the coloured one on light backgrounds.
- Leave enough space around the logo so that it stands on its own.
- Do not build the logo into other logos, wordmarks or graphics.
For any use beyond editorial coverage, please talk to us first.

One sentence
Green Ecolution, based in Flensburg, develops a modular open source platform that turns measurements into action, starting with the demand-driven irrigation of urban trees.
Short version, around 50 words
Green Ecolution is a company based in Flensburg that develops a modular open source platform built on the principle of measure, understand, act. The first use case is the demand-driven irrigation of urban trees: sensors measure soil moisture, the software shows where water is needed, and the operations planning calculates the watering routes. Green Ecolution began at Flensburg University of Applied Sciences.
Long version, around 120 words
Green Ecolution is a Flensburg-based company founded together with PROGEEK Group. It develops and runs a modular open source platform that turns measurements into decisions and operations. The first use case is the demand-driven irrigation of urban trees. Sensors measure soil moisture at variable depths and transmit their readings over LoRaWAN. The software evaluates the measurement series, shows on a map which trees need water, and calculates the watering routes from that. The City of Flensburg uses the system day to day together with its Technisches Betriebszentrum. The project was initiated by the City of Flensburg together with Smarte Grenzregion and began in 2024 as a research project at Flensburg University of Applied Sciences. The entire code is publicly available on GitHub. In 2026 Green Ecolution received the Digitalisierungspreis Schleswig-Holstein.
