FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will scanning my greens interrupt play?

Not at all. In most cases, players won´t even notice we´re on site because the scanner can be placed up to 150 feet from the playing surface.

 

How long does the GreenScan 3D process take?

Two days with good weather and two people on site. It will then take 2 weeks to process the data into the format requested

 

How accurate is GreenScan 3D?

GreenScan 3D is by far the most accurate and precise method available for restoring or replicating greens. Smoothing algorithms remove all ball marks and debris.Mow a strip across your green, and we can show you in a topographical map exactly where you went. It's that accurate.

 

Why should my club use GreenScan 3D for new construction?

New greens are the result of careful grading and design refinements. They should be spot on in functionality and design. Over time contours change due to maintenance and other factors. If scanned early the geometry can be preserved and replicated later.

 

How difficult is it to learn the Robotic Total Station? And what is the cost?

We can train your Superintendent, a member of his staff or your contractor to work with our data and the Robotic Total Station easily in one day. The most difficult part is the setup, after that is automatic. Rental of the device is $600.00 per week, and our day rate for training is $1000 per day.
