SenseGrass Joins Iowa AgriTech Accelerator

SenseGrass announced the selection and investment from the Iowa AgriTech Accelerator, a Des Moines based accelerator is a mentor-led program that focuses on ag-based technology innovations. Through this partnership, SenseGrass will strengthen its connections with selected startups, enabling the company to accelerate its innovation capabilities for future smart farming technologies and solutions to work towards the improvements of the farms.

SenseGrass offers 360 farming solutions based on cutting edge technology like Nano-Satellite Mapping, Rover Bots, and AI agronomist accessible on mobile & web application that makes farming super-efficient & easy. SenseGrass is the world's first smart farming solution for fertilizer management and to detect crop disease to increase crop yield with water control tools.


Headquartered in Iowa, launched in 2016 by the Greater Des Moines Partnership and the Cultivation Corridor, the Iowa AgriTech Accelerator allows startups to collaborate with agriculture industry leaders and present their solutions to refine product-market fit, perform customer discovery within the industry, and build strategic partnerships.

How to overcome GNSS limitations with RTK correction services

Although GNSS offers ubiquitous coverage worldwide, its accuracy can be hindered in some situations - signals can be attenuated by heavy vegetation, for example, or obstructed by tall buildings in dense urban canyons. This results in signals being received indirectly or via the multipath effect, leading to inaccuracy, or even blocked entirely. Unimpeded GNSS positioning in all real world scenarios is therefore unrealistic - creating a need for supporting technologies, such as real time kinematic (RTK) positioning and dead reckoning, to enable centimeter-accuracy for newer mass-market IoT devices.
