Supported with
Developed Technology
Based on technology developed by the United States Golf Association (USGA), the
FieldScout TruFirm offers a quick, easy, and affordable method to measure the
firmness of turf, bunker sands, and other playing surfaces. Data acquired from
the device allows researchers and turf management professionals to measure the
relationship between the compaction of the soil and the moisture level, in order to
quantify playing conditions.
Help make decisions regarding areas of the field that require tillage, changes
to crop rotation, and planting of cover crops.
* GPS interface requires two cables. The GPS/DGPS cable (item 2950CV5) is available from Spectrum.
A PC serial interface cable supplied by the manufacturer of the GPS receiver is also required.
