Abstract/Contents: | Describes the Global Positioning System (GPS) and its history. Also describes the applications of GPS and in the air, at sea and on land. On golf courses, GPS can provide a superintendent with a precise mapping tool to calculate acreage, for tees, greens, fairways and roughs. It can also provide an accurate fertility audit that can help with the budget. GPS also measures the soil depth, drainage and soil type. Examines future uses for GPS. |
