  • Systems and methods for diagnosing soil characteristics and subterranean plant characteristics
    Patent number: 11944029
    Abstract: Methods, systems and devices for mobile detection of soil compaction and soil characteristic data are provided. Operations include causing a subsurface portion of soil at a compaction detection location to be disrupted using compressed air, generating disruption data corresponding to the disruption of the subsurface portion of the soil at the compaction detection location, generating geographic location data corresponding to the compaction detection location, receiving the geographic location data from the location device and the disruption data from the disruption sensor and associating the geographic location data with the disruption data.
