GroundWorx Autonomous Intelligence Network
GroundWorx GAIN: autonomous soil intelligence
The autonomous management layer that turns raw soil telemetry and AI-modeled weather into predictive irrigation and turf health decisions — on golf courses, sports fields, campuses, commercial landscape, and farms.

Six very different properties. One source of truth.
Championship conditions
Golf
Superintendents run the tightest tolerance in turf. GroundWorx puts continuous root-zone data under every green, tee, and fairway so hand-watering, syringe cycles, and overnight run times are decided by measurement instead of memory.

Safe, playable surfaces
Sports Fields
Game-day surfaces live between too wet and too hard. The GX-1S sports sensor sits below the play surface and reports root-zone conditions continuously, so grounds crews can defend a field decision with data.

Campus grounds at scale
Schools & Universities
Campus grounds span athletics, quads, formal landscape, and research plots — each with a different standard and a shared budget. GroundWorx gives facilities teams a single record of what every area is actually doing.
Explore
Portfolio landscape
Commercial Properties
Corporate campuses, resorts, HOAs, and managed portfolios are judged on appearance and audited on cost. GroundWorx makes landscape performance measurable across every property under management.

Field-scale irrigation
Agriculture
The iQ SmartTowers extend GroundWorx into production agriculture, reporting soil moisture, temperature, and salinity at depth over LTE Cat-1 with an elevated antenna mast built for long-range coverage across open acreage — so irrigation decisions follow the crop, not the calendar.

Emerging fire intelligence
Under DevelopmentiQ Fire Station
An emerging 32-element sensing network for wildfire prevention — monitoring fuel moisture below ground and air quality, smoke, flame, and atmospheric conditions above it, with autonomous alerts through GAIN.

Soil moisture
34.8% VWC
One connected system
From root-zone signal to autonomous action.
01 / SENSE
Wireless soil sensors
Buried root-zone sensors report moisture, temperature, and salinity every ten minutes over cellular, with a seven-year battery.
02 / FORECAST
AI weather intelligence
GAIN blends many weather sources into one site-specific picture: historical patterns and a forward-looking forecast for your property.
03 / CONNECT
GX-1 network
One sensor family across turf, sports, campus, and agriculture — the ground-truth layer that trains GAIN. Built in the USA and proven in the field since 2021.
04 / DECIDE
GAIN
The autonomous intelligence layer that interprets every signal, predicts turf response, and recommends the next action.
The intelligence loop
Every decision you make teaches the network.
Most systems explain the past. GroundWorx closes the loop: what actually happened after a decision comes back as evidence, so the next prediction is better than the last.
01
Observe
Field sensors capture root-zone conditions with location, time, and depth attached to every reading.
02
Contextualize
GAIN joins those readings to AI weather, irrigation history, maintenance activity, and the goals for each location.
03
Predict
The model projects where conditions are heading, and states how strongly the evidence supports it.
04
Decide
Your team acts. Recommendations carry the location, the action, the rationale, and a confidence level.
05
Verify
What actually happened after the decision is captured and compared against what was predicted.
06
Learn
Verified outcomes sharpen the next prediction. This is Intelligence Compounding™.
Ghost Locations
A location keeps reporting after the sensor moves on.
Once GroundWorx has learned how a location behaves — how it dries, how it drains, how it responds to heat and irrigation — that behavior is retained as a Ghost Location. The sensor can rotate to the next spot while the original keeps contributing to your predictions.
The result: coverage grows every season without buying a sensor for every square of ground. A property that starts with twenty monitored locations can be reasoning about eighty within five years.

Illustrative cadence for a championship golf course running twenty active locations with ten rotating sensors. Actual growth depends on soil variability and site goals.
“The data changed how we water. We stopped guessing and started making decisions we can defend.”
“Knowing exactly what the root zone is doing, everywhere, every day, is the difference between reacting and managing.”
