Market guide
Survey the lawn before buying
A practical property audit for zones, slopes, passages, edges, signal and chargingAdvertised acreage describes capacity under stated conditions. It does not describe the route between zones, the damp north slope or whether the mower can distinguish lawn from an unprotected drop.
01
Measure
Separate area from route difficulty
Measure mowable area, then record the route into each zone, the narrowest point and the surface under the mower. A small lawn can be a difficult robot property.
- Zones
- Note gates, driveways and carrying requirements.
- Passages
- Include turning room and objects at wheel height.
02
Stress test
Use the worst slope and weakest edge
Test the steepest transition when it is damp. Walk every curb, wall, mulch border, water edge and drop-off that could trap or damage the mower.
- Slope
- Measure the transition, not only the open grade.
- Edge
- Decide where a physical barrier is still necessary.
03
Infrastructure
Place charging and positioning deliberately
The dock needs power, drainage and a clear approach. RTK systems may also need an antenna or network correction path with a stable view.
- Dock
- Plan power, weather, theft and winter storage.
- Signal
- Check the actual property rather than a neighborhood-level coverage claim.
