Farm Mapping |
|
The GPS mapping system is an absolute boon for farmers and can be used to provide a comprehensive overview of any farm. |
|
The square footage for area payments can be accurately calculated and computerised records kept of soil types, weeds, the siting of as-built utilities, gas lines, water and electrical lines. |
|
Using the information, a farmer can smooth, average and contour any point data, for example, with soil test results. |
|
Soil testing is also carried out by UK Sprayers. |
|
Golf Course Mapping |
|
As well as looking after the sprayer servicing requirements of golf courses all over the country, UK Sprayers provides a golf-course mapping service. Using a motorbike fitted with a DGPS mapping equipment, the operator can collect precise details about every aspect of a course like the total number of square feet, greens, fairways and tee boxes and much more. |
|
This information is then reproduced in a variety of formats: |
-
As a large wall map covering every aspect of the golf course.
-
On a CD containing image files of individual holes and areas of interest on the
course in the form of flip charts.
-
As a gamekeeper’s map with numbers to identify each area of a course.
|
|
When this is used in conjunction with an iPAC software package the gamekeeper is able to keep detailed notations on everything done to the turf, record equipment and grounds maintenance information and so on. This system replaces time-consuming manual records with an accurate computerised record-keeping system. |
|
