Turf, soil, and course insights at your fingertips

Golf Course Management Made Easy

Managing a golf course is no small task. Before every swing of the golf club, a long series of carefully planned steps ensures the quality of the playing field. Proper golf course management and high-quality turf grass can make a difference in a golfer’s performance, from lowering scores to reducing handicaps. From maintaining pristine greens to optimizing resource use, course managers therefore require innovative tools to ensure efficiency and sustainability.

But how can this be achieved?

METOS by Pessl Instruments, together with Punctus, offers an all-in-one solution designed to transform turf management through technology and data-driven insights. It begins with understanding the requirements of turf grass and supporting golf course managers with timely soil and irrigation management, fertilizer application, and effective weed, insect, and disease control strategies.

WHY CHOOSE OUR COMBINED SOLUTION?

With real-time environmental data from METOS technology and Punctus Software managing daily workflows, you gain a powerful, all-in-one solution that keeps your course performing at its best. Simplify operations, enhance decision-making, and achieve superior course maintenance with ease.

From automated labor tracking and task assignments to equipment management, course condition monitoring, soil moisture monitoring, chemical applications, safety protocols, insect pressure, water stress, weather forecast and in-depth reporting, this combined solution simplifies complex tasks and enhances operational efficiency.

KEY FEATURES of METOS by Pessl Instruments hardware and Punctus software 

METOS by Pessl Instruments and Punctus offer an integrated ecosystem that streamlines turf management with precise and actionable insights. By continuously monitoring key parameters such as soil moisture, temperature, and weather conditions, the system provides a comprehensive understanding of what’s going on in the course.

This real-time data enables turf managers to make informed decisions that minimize water use, optimize fertilization, and improve overall turf health. Additionally, with extra add-ons to predict potential issues, such as disease risks or insect pressure, ensure that preventive actions can be taken before problems escalate, saving time and resources.

The system also enhances workflow efficiency by offering detailed insights into asset usage and workforce activities. Managers can monitor equipment location and performance, allowing for optimized scheduling and reduced downtime. All critical data is stored in a single platform, making it easy to access and analyze information from anywhere, whether on-site or remotely. This holistic approach not only simplifies operations but also supports sustainability goals by reducing resource wastage and environmental impact.

By incorporating advanced analytics and modeling capabilities, our combined solution allows users to visualize turf conditions and predict future trends. This foresight is invaluable for planning maintenance schedules, irrigation cycles, and pest control measures. Furthermore, the system’s compatibility with existing management software ensures seamless integration, eliminating redundancies and improving overall efficiency.

USE CASE: Simplifying operations at Golfpark Zürichsee

Golfpark Zürichsee in Switzerland exemplifies the potential of METOS solutions.

By implementing the system, the park achieved:

  • Improved irrigation efficiency through real-time soil moisture data.
  • Proactive disease prevention with risk modeling.
  • Optimized resource use with remote monitoring.
