Next level data monitoring

TurfPod

  • Real-time turf data, around the clock
  • Built for tee boxes and high-traffic areas
  • Act before problems become visible

Microclimate analysis

TurfPod tracks six essential grass growth factors above and below the playing surface, giving superintendents detailed insight into the microclimate of tee boxes, fairways and other high-traffic areas. Make objective, data-driven decisions about irrigation, nutrition and recovery, long before stress shows on top.

  • Above ground: PAR light · air temperature · relative humidity.
  • Below ground: soil moisture · soil temperature · salinity (EC).

Full control

The Live Data module comes standard with every TurfPod subscription. View 24/7 microclimate data from any device through TurfBase Golf, monitor crew priorities while off site, and respond to changing conditions in a timely manner.

Use the data to optimise irrigation and nutrition, cut unnecessary inputs, and reduce waste, costs and your operational footprint, all while keeping turf in top playing condition.
