DripLine Field Studio is a visual drip-irrigation design and flow-budget workbench for market gardeners, homesteaders, greenhouse growers, and small orchardists who need to plan a drip system correctly before buying a single fitting. Instead of guessing emitter spacing or pipe sizing, the grower sketches planting zones on a blueprint-style grid canvas, drops emitters from a seeded flow-rate library, and the app instantly computes total zone flow, pressure-loss budget along the line, and a realistic watering schedule based on soil type. The app opens with a fully populated sample project (a mixed vegetable + orchard-row layout with real numbers) so there is never a blank or placeholder state, and every calculator uses complete seeded reference tables (emitter GPH values, pipe friction-loss coefficients, soil intake rates) rather than stub data.

DripLine Field on iPhone and iPad.
Zone Designer canvas: draw planting beds and drip-line runs on a blueprint grid, drag to place rows, and snap emitters at 6"/12"/18"/24" spacing presets
Seeded emitter flow-rate library with real GPH values (0.5/1.0/2.0/4.0 GPH) mapped to preloaded plant templates (tomato row, pepper bed, lettuce bed, fruit tree, greenhouse bench)
Flow-budget calculator that sums total GPH per zone against a chosen supply-line capacity and flags over-budget zones on an animated brass-style flow gauge
Pressure-loss estimator using a Hazen-Williams-based lookup table for pipe diameter, run length, elevation change, and fitting count, displaying estimated PSI drop on a dial gauge with a max-recommended-run readout
Watering Schedule Builder that converts soil type (sandy/loam/clay), emitter flow, and target weekly gallons into a generated set of cycle-length and frequency cards per zone
Parts List generator that totals mainline/tubing footage, emitter count, and fittings per project and exports a complete shopping list as a PDF via PDFKit
