GPS Precision Management on Golf Courses

What are the aspects of GPS precision management on golf courses? The PACE Turfgrass Research Institute says, “the goal of Precision Turfgrass Management (PTM) is to carefully observe, document, map, and manage golf courses on the smallest reasonable scale to provide optimum performance for the entire golf course environment with the minimum human, natural, mechanical and chemical resources. In addition to improving management for different locations throughout the course (spatial), precision management will help improve management through time (temporal).”

GPS Management Systems RAMS reports (pace of play, course load, cart usage, ect.) On Cart Advertising Hot Zone Alerts/Messaging ( warnings on weather or restricted areas) Food and Drink orders

Mapping Using Global Positioning Systems (GPS) Irrigation Layouts Utility Line Layouts Drainage Layouts Cart Path Layouts

Allows location of utility, drainage, and irrigation lines before construction and digging Programmable for irrigation head, pipe, valve and control line location

Chemical & Fertilizer Application Programs allow for individual costs on tee boxes, fairways and greens How is this possible?

Chemical & Fertilizer Applications Points on each location are calculated and the square feet of the are is determined This is what allows for better fertilizer and chemical application requirements

Satellite Imagery for Disease Detection Information Combines hyperspectral reflectance information between 450 & 900 nm and fluorescence imaging obtained is used with device mounted on spray rig for site specific pesticide application (seen more in farming practice) receiver that has both WAAS and Beacon differential GPS capabilities and sub-meter resolution Most popular receiver made by Trimble Navigation

Going Mobile Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) Cell Phones Hand-held Radios

Weather and Climate Information Available current weather conditions Forecast Information High/Low Temperature, Precipitation, Degree Days, Wind Speed/Direction, Soil Temperature
