  • Surface Quality: Evaluates evenness, smoothness, and wear tolerance for player safety and performance.
  • Soil Nutrient Analysis: Measures macro and micronutrient levels to inform optimal fertiliser programs.
  • Root and Thatch Depth: Analyses turf health and underlying organic matter build-up.
  • Volumetric Moisture Content: Monitors moisture levels within the rootzone for irrigation efficiency.
  • Penetrometer and Clegg Hammer Testing: Assesses compaction and surface hardness to ensure player safety and compliance with sports standards.
