    The planet\u2019s fresh water supply is limited. Since the population is increasing every year, the <\/span>overall <\/span>demand for water will rise <\/span>correspondingly over time.<\/span>\u00a0 If there is a sudden <\/span>drought, or water supply deficit, it is likely that <\/span>the last sector which the government(s) think about is golf courses.<\/p>

    Golf courses are among the primary types of water-dependent<\/strong> industries<\/strong> that will be looked upon to develop <\/span>high-quality<\/span> water <\/span>conservation practices, <\/span>with a<\/span> focus on increasing water-use efficiency.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

    Golf courses should be equipped with an irrigation system that takes into account soil variability and uses water efficiently.<\/em> Soil variability is <\/span>influenced <\/span>by factors such as climate, <\/span>water regime<\/span>, <\/span>pedosphere-bioactivity<\/span>, solar radiation, wind speed, humidity, air temperature and <\/span>anthropogenic modifications<\/span>.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>

    As a result, golf courses are <\/strong><\/span>generally not uniform, and soil properties may vary in different locations.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    Landmapper determines the water content in the soil at different depths.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

    LandMapper detects stagnant water. The user will develop a<\/span> useful <\/span>map with an accurate description of the <\/span>various <\/span>soil properties throughout the field.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

    The device is portable and weighs only 250 grams and very compact, some models could even fit in a<\/span>\u00a0shirt pocket<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

    LandMapper maps soil terrain nearer to the surface and also measures soil properties at depth.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

    Using the <\/span>generated<\/span> map <\/span>from data,<\/span> the user <\/span>can create an irrigation system that will take into account the variability of <\/span>soil at his site. Thanks to this <\/span>essential<\/span> benefit,<\/span> the money <\/span>will be saved when irrigating<\/span> golf courses.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    • You <\/span>will be able to constantly monitor the quality of the soil: the level of salinity, texture, <\/span>moisture, and stone content<\/span>. <\/span>This feature enables the golf course superintendent<\/span> to<\/span> apply <\/span>fertilizers on time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/li>

    • You will create an efficient irrigation system in your golf courses, which will <\/span>utilize<\/span> only the necessary amount of <\/span>water and avoid overuse. Irrigation<\/span> that takes into account the variability of the soil <\/span>is a valuable operational cost-benefit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/li>

    • The user of LandMapper<\/span> will be able to identify problems with the soil at different depths <\/span>and detect<\/span> depth<\/span>s<\/span> to water restricting layer<\/span>s,<\/span> deeper salts and depth to groundwater (up to 30 m). This will allow <\/span>the superintendent <\/span>to <\/span>develop onsite solutions<\/span>.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
