Keeping golf courses in good condition is a major issue for many
golf clubs in Northern Europe, where weather can be volatile. Turf
care is a challenge, as is ensuring the grass survives the cold
winters. Golf course maintenance priorities vary considerably
during the seasons. While monitoring soil moisture for safe
irrigation, temperature to avoid grass burn and conductivity as an
indicator of fertilizer levels are vital during the summer season,
the handling of oxygen levels is more important in the winter and
drives protective actions.
Haga chose Orange IoT Connect Anywhere to transform its course
maintenance. The solution provides scalable end-to-end secure
connectivity between sensors installed on the course and a data
management platform. Live Objects, the Orange Business Services IoT
and analytics platform, then turns this raw data into actionable
insight.
The autonomous sensor monitoring system from Orange will help
Haga Golf greenskeepers track and understand the changing weather
conditions. This will enable them to keep the greens in the best
condition possible.
“The greenskeeping function is critical to us, and we see great
benefits in this tailored IoT sensor solution. We have started an
innovative collaboration with Orange where our employees can work
more efficiently, and our members can use the course more often,”
said Erik Solberg, General Manager, Haga Golf.
“Haga Golf is an excellent example of how an organization can
use smart technology to solve time consuming duties. We are pleased
that Haga Golf chose us as their technology partner, and we look
forward to developing even more innovative solutions together. Haga
Golf has paved the way for other golf courses and organizations
with similar issues, such as public park maintenance, to improve
efficiencies and costs through the connected world of IoT,” said
Fabrice de Windt, senior vice president, Europe at Orange Business
Services.
