The challenge

What operators are up against

Operators responsible for soil sampling points, fields, soil moisture, soil temperature, electrical conductivity, air temperature, humidity, GPS coordinates, mobile records, growers, agronomists and researchers cannot continuously inspect every operating condition or developing fault. Periodic checks leave gaps between readings, while isolated local indicators provide limited history and context. A late response can cause downtime, safety exposure, equipment damage, or incomplete compliance evidence. Teams need timely measurements, clear exceptions, and a defined operating response.

The solution

How Portable GPS Soil Sampling and Field Mapping addresses it

Portable GPS Soil Sampling and Field Mapping combines connected field data with application software. The handheld Soil Cub or Soil Cub Plus TDR probe captures an instant five-in-one soil and air reading at each selected field point. The Plus model pairs with the Soil Cub app, tags each observation with GPS, stores readings for review and supports data export. Field teams compare zones, map samples, verify irrigation conditions, revisit anomalies, move through multiple sites and export evidence.

How it works

Teams configure the monitored assets, users, and operating rules. The handheld Soil Cub or Soil Cub Plus TDR probe captures an instant five-in-one soil and air reading at each selected field point. Soil Cub Plus uses Bluetooth to exchange field readings with the mobile app; the current official page does not identify the Bluetooth generation.
