Hyperlocal Disease Prediction and
Precision Prescriptions for your GPS Sprayer
Disease is one of the biggest challenges in turf management and directly affects the playing surface.
​
We provide hyperlocal disease monitoring of your entire golf course.
​
Through integration with John Deere Operations Center™, disease pressure maps can be used directly to plan and execute targeted applications.
"Precision disease management requires the utilization of both academic research and technological innovation to become a reality for golf course superintendents, and this integration is a major step towards making that happen.
Precision application based on the microclimates present around a course is agronomically sound and a more economically and environmentally responsible way to use plant protection products."​

Real-time Evapotranspiration per m2
Water is a scarce resource across the world and even more so for golf courses.
​
We can help you monitor evapotranspiration in real-time per m2 to optimize irrigation.
"Hyperlocal evapotranspiration modelling opens new opportunities for precision irrigation management and turfgrass research.
It bridges the gap between environmental data and actionable turf management, with the potential to significantly improve water efficiency and turf quality.”

Spatial and Temporal Irradiance Data​
Trees and gradients are main drivers for challenging microclimates in golf courses
​
We can analyse the impact from both with our high-resolution spatial and temporal irradiance data.
