About SKIM Turf Management
Since 2002, we have specialized in software production. Three years ago, we embarked on a new journey, SKIM Turf Management, that truly resonated with our founders’ love and vision for golf. We know that technology will impact golf operations, so we prepared a unique software which provides crucial insights and tangible savings for golf course owners and superintendents.
AI models analyze images, from satellites or drones, to reveal insights before they are detectable by the human eye. In collaboration with turf scientists, we meticulously prepared data during three growing seasons in experimental turf fields. Training and building SKIM’s AI backbone required more than 33,000 satellite images, 7,000 drone images, 5,000 visual assessments, 4,500 in-situ tests, and 24,000 laboratory results.
Golf courses can now take more data driven decisions by harnessing the power of AI and multispectral analytics of aerial images. In one tool, golf decision makers can now analyze turfgrass performance on the entire course, save time with instantaneous results, anticipate turf health deficiencies, leverage historical data, optimize input applications to reduce costs, plan tasks and organize work.
